Mark W Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 They recommend running that chain the other way round, so it's like a teardrop shape pointing backwards. I'd recommend not running one at all, but hey, that's just me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 What's happening to the hydroxx then, Dan?! Looks really nice other than the front rotor, hub and the forks look slightly odd on it Top spec too - how are you finding it compared to the 'droxx?

Ash-Kennard Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 that looks f**king amazing, lighter forks though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_Gibson Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 forks look at bit gash, but nice apart from that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLeacock™ Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 New forks and new front wheel and you're onto a winner ? Looks nice dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Owen. Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Bloody hell Dan! Your almost as bad as me with changing frames! I thought the hydroxx was nice, but sh*t me, Dan's got a boxx! It's uber lush (haha). I had a feeling you were going to get one of these. I want to ride it! How does it feel compared to the hydroxx? Worth the extra cash?

eskimo Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Expensive piece of strangely formed metal, what else can i say? ...the other parts need upgrading to match it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan@Trials-uk Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks for all the positive comments guys, I will change the bars and front wheel soon after some more ware and tare:D About the Hydroxx, Its sold already im afraid:( Went out for a ride on the Boxx, can say its possibly the stiffest frame I've ridden yet and the overall weight is reasonable nothing spectacular but after some parts changing/ modification should be bit better:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hI-OOPS-CAPS Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 thats nice, are those hydroformed? and whats the chain? its seems like a line of half links Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Look at those welds :o :o Bloody hell, I can't say this frame is worth the price but they sure do make an effort do deliver a quality product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 thats nice, are those hydroformed? and whats the chain? its seems like a line of half links Yeah it is, And yeah, it's a "half-link" chain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Look at those welds Bloody hell, I can't say this frame is worth the price but they sure do make an effort do deliver a quality product. Every hydroformed frame I've seen has had that exact same sort of seam on them. It's more to do with the process rather than Koxx giving a shit about quality, as far as I can tell? Bearing in mind the hydroformed Planet X frame seams looked identical to that, and they cost a considerable amount less? Like if you compare that to the welding around the BB yoke where the seat-tube meets it in that pic, you can see a noticeable difference...
