James Quigley Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 You might find the 2006 Pitbull a bit short. If it's the same WB as your Levelboss then it will feel way shorter because of the higher BB. I'd definitely say ride a few peoples bikes first, just to get a feel of what you want.

Josephine Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Just a thing, measure your actual wheelbase, 'cos Urbans make bikes longer as a rule and if it's a bona fide 1065 LB I'll be surprised, most are 1100 aren't they?

fairy elephants Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 have you looked at the vario frame? I'm looking to get a new frame, and I'm edging towards this at the moment. It will probably feel shorter than your koxx, but you might like to take a look :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
