Nick Garland Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Hey Ive been offered a T-rex + headset (1 nd half months old for both) and £60 for my Koxx LB 1040 (over year old) + King Headset (6 months old). Do you think the deal is worth it? I am very tempted to say yes to it as I rode it today and it was lovely the guy is local and lives a 10 min car journey away.

MrMonkey Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 If it's the new T-Rex is sounds like a goodish deal to me (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 It's not a bad deal from a financial point of veiw, but they are two pretty different frames. If you think you'll like the T-Rex and fancy a change, then do it. I probably wouldn't swap, but it's your choice of course (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roozor Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 why the fudge not ? (Y) go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted February 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 (edited) Yea its the new one 2005 one and half months old which is why I think its a good deal, also I can buy the rear king ive wanted this way (Y) Also is the t-rex a 73mm bb? I have ridden it a fair bit today and found it alot nicer to ride than my Koxx as I have grown about 4" since I bought the koxx and it does feel abit cramped at times.

rhythm_101 Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Yea its the new one 2005 one and half months old which is why I think its a good deal, also I can buy the rear king ive wanted this way :( Also is the t-rex a 73mm bb? I have ridden it a fair bit today and found it alot nicer to ride than my Koxx as I have grown about 4" since I bought the koxx and it does feel abit cramped at times. ← o its a 63mm bb shell, i have a fsa dh pro bb and i needed a spacer, its a very nice bb by the way, it's a very pretty colour, you will need a 127mm axle to run a 22 tooth chainring, thankyou......bye ok (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 63mm?!?! dont you mean 68? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Mine came with a 73mm BB direct from Supercycles (woo yeah, go Supercycles... (Y) ) and it seems ok...crank spacing is slightly asymmetric but meh! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted February 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 So is it a 73mm or 68mm ? as I have had two different answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 The frame is 68mm but for some stupid reason mine came with a 73. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythm_101 Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 (edited) So is it a 73mm or 68mm ? as I have had two different answers. ← sorry i meant 68mm in my earlier post, but the only bb you can buy with a long enough axle is a 73mm one, so you'll have to fit a spacer, have a look on tartybikes website or pm the tart,and my spacing is a bit scew wiff aswell (Y) Edited February 5, 2005 by rhythm_101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 I think FSA only do 73mm BB now, but they provide you with a spacer so you can use it on 68mm frames (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted February 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Ill just swap BB's with the guy, we have the same BB's but I know his fits the Onza T-Rex it will save confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
