The 2011 Koxx Sky frames

- The new 2011 Sky frames have arrived at K-124 and will be available by the end of the week from K-124 House. They have understated lines, a classy purebred look that returns to the very essence of the brand : the quest for pure performance.

link? Or is that it?

http://www.tribalzine.com/?The-2011-Koxx-Sky-frames :)

EDIT: pictures are pretty crap arn't they? any chance of some decent ones? + more angles?

Whoops! Sorry about that! I was off work yesterday with suspected food poisoning (not nice) so probably wasn't concentrating properly! My post has now been edited with the link. You could always have gone to the Tribal Zine homepage though :P

The article's been updated with the weights for each frame and we've just seen a picture of Vince's full bike:

haha, I had that idea yeeaars ago. I dismissed it due to the amount of play it could develop, chains stretch and would snap through the loads developed not to mention the extra weight and costs.

I think it would be better to go the rout of moto trials and have a massively over built caliper but with a much higher piston ratio, this means you could use a much smaller, thicker rotor (possibly alloy) which is less likely to bend and rub the pads (necessary as the pads would only move a fraction). Works well enough to hold a 80kg bike and rider, so surly could be made for biketrials too?
