Bendee Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 make your own mind up as you will get so many different posts saying get this get that, decide which you think rides best and then go for that as it is your bike Agreed, its up to you to choose your bike all you will get is other peoples opinions and there opinions are based around what they like not what you like.Go out ride as many of the frames/bikes as you can to get a idea of what you like best.You cant base your buying a bike from what people have said, i mean shit half these people have openly admited they havent rode the bikes your looking at buying.

zoo Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 (edited) In my honest opinion,I think it is your decision on what bike you prefer,I have heard good and bad things about both Koxx and Monty.I have heard that Koxx are over-priced,but other people who have bought them say they are worth every penny they payed for them and love them as soon as they ride them,I have heard that montys are great bikes.I have also heard people saying that they snap quite easily because they are competition frames,other people think that they are too short.I haven't yet had the pleasure to ride either bike so until i have i can't really give a real answer(if possible) I would just go for what you feel you would be more happy riding and whichever you think suits your needs Good luck zoo Edited December 29, 2005 by zoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Greenan!!!!!!!!!! Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I think the question is are you better on long or short bikes? Because thats the diffrence between zoo and monty realy.Zoo! = LongMonty= Short Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Dave Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 which ever frame feels nicest to you. personally i think i would get a koxx. i just think that monty have some weird bits which could proove difficult to replace if you break them.

bikerboysam1 Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 If i were you mate, i would go for the 221 (i have one and they are ace) but having said that i haven't ever riden the koxx. They are deffinately overpriced though, so the Monty will be cheaperHope i helped,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Yes its up to you theres many mods out there check out tartybikes or selectbikes they have some.They will all be lighter than your t-bird and ay improve you riding, so go for it Clarkson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el curevo Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Both Koxx and Monty are good makes.But Monty have a wider range to choose from compared to Koxx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_gap girl Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 i have to say both, iv riden both the short koxx lb and a montyand i can not say which is best because they are both great bikes to ride!! high bb is a bad thing basicly the lower your bb - the greater the center of gravity, so there for better balence e.t.cbut also enough ground clearence lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpanther1 Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Both Monty and Koxx are great bikes.Top of the line bikes in each model...Monty - 2006 has a double disc, which gives it good breaking with less maintenance.Koxx - uses hydraulic breaks, therefore is lighter than the Monty, but you need to roughen your rims and adjust the location of brake pads periodically.If you get a chance, ride both and talk with their owners.Good luck and good riding!

steve huddo Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Koxx or the GUKoxx looks the nicer but you may have to get a B.Ros replica XTPSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
