  1. Why would you two pistons ? It will not work. If the pads of the front disc (for example) touch the rotor, you will no more be able to press on the lever, and if the pad of the rear brake doesn't, the rear wheel would be freed (or not enough tightened). Only one piston on the lever with two magura Louise brake with contact adjustment will be better.
  2. I have found some pics of two street sessions of Bruno Arnold. First set Second set is a poor quality vid of the french national world cup of La Bresse.Bruno finished second. Here a very old street video of Giacomo (on a Megamo) and Bruno Arnold (Koxx Eject I think) Another street vid of him
  3. Another pic: (click on it) Look very sweet on this picture!
  4. 24b was created by Tristian Vienne in 1998 or something like that. For two years about, Koxx is working with 24b, however, I'm not sure that it is the same entity. However yaabaa, try all, KST (stands as Koxx Street), Koxx one, world of K and the promodels are a sub brands of Koxx. I don't know if Aktarus is owned by Koxx (formerly it was two separate brands)
  5. Hi guys, I'm happy to share with you the arrival of a new french brand: OZONYS Website Wheelbase: 1085mm Bottom bracket: +40mm Bases: 385mm Bruno Arnold developed the bike. Bruno Arnold is a famous french pro rider, who is riding for about 13 years. He was world champion and is coming on the national top level again. The bike will be available in January 07 in France. I do not have much informations.
  6. Only a wheel, no more fork, but still a bar and stem. Something like that:
  7. The mod version in very high res Here the stock version in very high res
  8. I heard that to improve the braking performance and feeling, you can use a nokon hose. Unfortunately, it's very expensive (30£).
  9. 2) Someone died after beeing injured while street/trialing a few years ago in France, at the Louvres pyramid. I could not remember his name, sorry !
  10. Gilles wants to renew with competitions. In the MBK team he just rodes demo (as far as I know). So he left MBK and joined Koxx.

    Ribo Help

    I found 3 different models of Ribo's shoes: The Ribo SV-1 The Ribo Xavi Casas (the SV-2 ???), look like the SV-1. The Coustellier's model
  13. Yeah someone wrote +60mm on nopogo.net forum. Then the rumor grown ... However on the website +40 is written.
  14. I have a Tensile. It seems a good product. I did not heard problem with. It works very fine. Some complain about the Try all (it cracked). I am not sure that is a reliable freewheel due to the lot of engagement points, but maybe I'm wrong. I heard too that Tensile will release another version with more engagement points (96 ?). The current version will still be available but as a street version. Or try a Monty ! Here it is not expensive
  15. With only a person: With the woman of my dreams In a crew: With G. W. Bush and Ben Laden
  16. I got an Onza Carbon Brake Booster. Very light but very strong and stiff too. It is the same as the V!Z one here

  18. Hey guys ! Today I discovered that RB design made a disc brake 220€, about 285$. Cnc machined everywhere. More infos here And here I don't speak this language. Could somebody translate, please ? Does anybody heard something about it ? Cause it looks amazing !!
  19. Recently I discovered this trend: http://www.trueprecision.net/c_products.html I heard it s a very very good hub, the internal system (like the old silent clutch hub) assures an instantaneous engagement. Does anybody ride with ?
  20. Take a look at this pic: http://img180.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f...otgauchefe7.jpg Sorry..
  21. Trialskings! I like Rowan Johns vids too. See my dailymotion account, there are some good vids (according to me) In skate, Rodney Mullen vids and in BMX I'll say the amazing Scotty Cranmer
  22. Another french rider broke his right crank a few months ago: Here the picture of the crank The picture of his bike He was injured (6 suture points) If you are riding FSA crank, be aware ! He broke his frame too (a Marc Vinco Promodel first edition) He welded it. But this week: http://img180.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f...otgauchefe7.jpg
  23. The chain is a KHE for street bmx riding (3/16"). The splint link came with and is very strong. I fear more my cog than this link. But thanks for your advice. The cranks are old FSA that came with old Koxx(levelboss and code). A crank is silver (right), the other is red !
  24. Hi, Today, I broke my right crank during a little setup hop. I don't know what happens, I felt the right pedal very soft, and then : Fortunately, I'm not injured. Bye, and don't forget to check your bike before riding !
  25. Hum... I'll say: http://www.dailymotion.com/labourde/video/...lsukcomtrialsuk Cause these vids gave me lust of trial riding. Now the more fun: http://www.dailymotion.com/labourde/video/...-vinco-tour-vtt My preferred disco vid (I am a Rowan John's fan): http://www.dailymotion.com/labourde/video/...owan-johns-jump And I will say Manifesto of Ryan Leech, cause it's very hard to remove all the recovery and setup hops. And some of Andrew T.
