RossMcd Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I really love those frames!!how much did it set you back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Well the frame ended up costing £550, a little more than i was hoping but i can totally justify spending the money. You cant really appretiate how nice they look until you see one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clownbike Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 It rides as good as it looks too. (love heart smilie)I want a Koxx too. Somebody buy me a boxx please.Lazy! Looks really nice man. After seeing that frame in videos i thought it was ginger, rather than gold. Looks really good !!One thing though - what is the rear brake like without a booster?Neilps I want your frame so please don't cut it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 would be better if you drilled those holes in a straight line ......dont quite believe the 20lbs statement but hey.... niceexpensive but nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Quigley Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 would be better if you drilled those holes in a straight line ......dont quite believe the 20lbs statement but hey.... niceexpensive but nice.I do, I've seen the scales.Seriously you just need to pick up the bike and it almost floats away. Ridding it is nuts.Tank always goes hardcore with the weight.Those frames are suprisingly lighter than they look too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
