  1. Really, I prefer the Kenda over the Try-All because of the weight, the stability and the price! Thanks everyone for the comments so far.
  2. Thanks man. The Shift wears out too fast and I found the rear very good too. It's just too expensive and it sometimes folds...
  3. So I already posted some pics but this is the final build with the final parts as I had some troubles finding the tires I wanted. Spec: KOXX Sky 2 V2 frame with Sky 2 headset and Try-All Forxx steel steerer 4-bolt fork (I love that fork and it took some times to get one). Try-All Hole No War rim on Trialtech hub with Sapim spokes and Kenda Nevegal Stick-E compound on the rear (best rear tire ever). Try-All Hole No War rim on Try-All hub with Sapim spokes and Maxxis High Roller eXCeption series compound on the front (grippiest tire ever). Trialtech Sport Lite Bottom bracket (smooth!) with Try-All Lite cranks, Trialtech Half Bashring, Echo SL freewheel, Wellgo Magnesium pedals with steel axle, and Trialtech Z610 HX 3/32" chain. Try-All mod stem (150mm x 30°) with Try-All Karbon bars and Trialtech foam thin grips. Double Post 2005 HS33 with sanded levers and Try-All CNC TPA (and modified lever body so it doesn't crack) with Rockman CNC pads and Try-All CNC brake clamps (...rusty steel bolts...). Pics: What do you think?
  4. Ali C mode on: Your bars are tilted too much forward Ali C mode off. (Only kidding Ali) Very nice video. I recognize this place from another video of someone riding a Zhi Z3 from last year.
  5. I always have to screw in the tpa to get a constant lever feel so I think it leaks, I have to set the pads really near the rim and as this frame is so flexy, whenever you tap the bike on the ground the pads rub... So yes they are a huge pile of shit.

  7. That's true. I didn't thought this bike would come out that good I suppose...
  8. Hey that was awesome. I enjoyed it.
  9. Can we have the names of the musics please?
  10. Work 12 hours a day even on Saturday evening and I am sure you will be as spoilt as me.
  11. His comp style is so different from his usual casual smooth session style! He has been to the gym for sure!
  12. Hold on, is the weight real? This is too light! And you should have got a lower BB because this is just an Onza "Sky 2". It looks nice though.
  13. SO here is the story: Koxx Boxx cracked in two places near the BB. No big deal as it had to happen and as I rode the shit out of it! Best frame I had so far though. So had to rebuild the Echo Pure 2011. And as I enjoyed TRA's idea of the "ghetto bike" he built after breaking his current frame, I used some of the numerous parts I had lying in the garage to build the "Bronx bike". For me it's a shit bike as I have been riding the Boxx which was such a good frame and as it has very poor quality parts such as Echo TR brakes, used tires, old Echo TR freewheel, and used rims. But it's still pretty decent for some people: And these are some photos I took tonight: Oh! Nice! Spec: Koxx Sky 2 with Koxx Forxx, Double HS33 with Rockpads in CNC backings, Try-All mod stem, Try-All Karbon bars, Double Try-All Hole No War rims, Echo SL freewheel, Wellgo pedals, Try-All lite cranks, Kenda Small Blogk eight front tire and Schwalbe Big betty rear tire. Better photos when it gets a grind tomorrow! And here is my life in one photo...
  14. Skateboard video editing and filming with street trials riding = how it should be! EPIC!
  15. You're not supposed to dent a frame dude... The V2 was probably designed a bit too light, but it's a competition oriented frame so it's not made to pardon the mistakes if you see what I mean... Exactly!
  16. I really like the look of it and no wonder it will be a super frame as Bruno has always produced great products!
  17. They are made from very thin tubes so whenever you hit the downtube, they dent and snap fast after.
  18. Second hand. It was the second bike of a starter. He had two Boxx. He barely used that one. None of the two have cracked in three years! I have had a very good build for 750 euros and I just built it with new parts! It is a very expensive bike right now...
  19. It has always been for me...
  20. Some clips from this summer (end of really...) from a friend and me. Nothing spectacular, this was filmed during a week end when we partied a lot (too much?). So we weren't in the best shape ever...
