Zini Trail 2025

2025 Zini Z29 Trail at Cycle Zone — 29er hardtail efficiency with 120 mm air-sprung control

The 2025 Zini Z29 Trail is a confidence-building 29er hardtail for riders who want smooth speed on district roads and sure-footed handling on singletrack. Its hydro-formed 6061 aluminium frame (Gen2) blends durability with modern ride quality, featuring a tapered head tube, internal cable routing and dropper-post compatibility so you can upgrade as your ambitions grow.

A 120 mm Z-Tech air fork with remote lock-out keeps cadence high on climbs and takes the sting out of rocky descents, while Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes deliver predictable stopping in all weather. Add a wide-range Shimano 1×10 drivetrain and fast-rolling Kenda Honey Badger 2.2" tyres, and you’ve got an aluminium mountain bike that feels quick on the flat and composed when the trail gets rough. Get expert sizing and setup at Cycle Zone in Rustenburg.

Whether you’re building fitness, tackling marathon routes, or linking jeep track with flowing singletrack, the Z29 Trail balances efficiency and control—ready to cover more ground with less fuss.
