Greetings Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I spoke to Dan 2 weeks ago and he said yes, but the design will be different. Don't remember the details but in essence he can't legally make the rims he wanted to so he's going to try and think of something else which will make KO rims stand out.

Shaun H Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 bump info is needed Having done some research for Dan as I suspected after spotting it on many of their wheelsets, Mavic have multiple patents on ISM (Inter-Spoke Milling) so Dan can't legally produce the rims without a license. I should think this is the very reason Deng is so against starting production on rims like these again, he probably had a smack on the wrist from Mavic's legal team.As far as Ko-Bikes go, Dan is committed to ensuring products he release are fulfilling needs of riders which aren't already covered by many other companies. There's no point churning out generic rims when there's a lot of choice out there already.If possible we will be having a session this week to look into some ideas we've been discussing.
