Ollie Histon Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Don't buy them, you'll look like a muppet when they go out of fashion. Whereas Waynio can just get some new wheels easy as 123.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Don't buy them, you'll look like a muppet when they go out of fashion. Whereas Waynio can just get some new wheels easy as 123..That Black Mumba from Towler will NEVER go out of fashion just because it looks pimp and is nicley doneand as for waynio.... not sure that ever was in fashion love you!

Waynio Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 ye bens are yellow on his XTP-Rhe did have some pink ones on for a while, until people had commented about pink rims on an anodised blue bike love you really benny boy.Waynio...................the green ones are kool. i like how people say it will go out of fashion and theres deng and co making even more of it? brake levers,headsets,mmmmmmmmmm looks like fashion is the way people are buyiong bikes nower days, therefore (hence why) companies are following a "trend"you want choice? you have got it, this dude wants coloured rims, some people dont, dont loose sleep over it, ride your bikes, and enjoy it, if someone has a certain colour on his bike he has got it cos he/she likes it.

Robwalker Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Whilst on the subject, i was just wondering if there any stronger than the normal 'cheese' koxx/tryall rims? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 rob they do seem to be stronger than previous attempts by koxx. towler is certainly throwing his around like no-bodys business and they do the trick im actually impressed by them myself. think the holes are smaller than before so much stronger. and seem to hold a grind quite nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz M Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 i had the new mod koxx rim, was really good not as good as other rims for strength (echo cnc etc) but compared to other wide rims its easily the best out at the minute, couldnt dent it with one grind, my brake was pretty decent too to say it was a koxx rim held a grind decently id use another if i wanted too, ended up denting it a few times but its the first rim ive had that i havent managed to snap after 3 grinds really coool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 i didnt think the rims had changed??? or have i missed something? iv used them for 2 years and ONLY broken 1!!! and that was at the demo for the SSDT and it didnt break it just had a bad flat spot in it. (ok then maybe 2 )the 20" ones the holes got smaller.Waynio......................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waynio Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 no dude they are single wall you would pringle it in no time.THEY do do a "narrower" rim BUT im not 100% sure they do it in the new fluro colours, i know they do them in black and i think there 38mm instead of 40odd. hope that helps. if you need any more info ring fred on 07000 442232Waynio.......................
