  1. I've just got myself a bjorn, I wouldn't class myself as a hard basher... I do bash, but only accidentally, such as hitting the chainstays after a failed sidehop, downtube after a failed pedal-up, etc. I only really use the bashring to rest on an obstacle.

    I also got told they don't last very long, so I'm planning on taking the bash plate off, and probably grinding or filing the bash mounts down (luckily the bjorn doesn't have a bb mount, just a downtube one). And possibly putting a carbon protector on the downtube, so I guess I'm in the same boat as you. :)

    The Bjorn Frame cracks in the headtube, on the corners of the cut out. So watch after it there.

  2. Hi,

    The past few months or so my bike has been creaking somehow, it comes from the Bb or frame near the bb. When I pedal hard it creaks. When I put a hand on each pedal and push it hard sideways it creaks?

    It's a rockman bjorn frame, rockman lite cranks and a reset ti bb. Everything's greased up nice and tightened up.

    So what can cause the creaking??

    Thanks

    Erik

    Found these crack in my frame the other day, that may explain the creaking.

    Send the pictures to rockman but only got one reply with the answer, where did you buy the frame?

    after replying that, no answers for a week or so?

  3. They have to go somewhere. I've heard a lot of horror stories about how Koxx treat their sponsored riders, hearing people leave them doesn't make me at all surprised.

    Also, I wouldn't be surprised if in 5 years time, they'd all going over to Echo.

    That makes sense :) Monty are presenting a totally new line of bikes soon, thats what i heard from the trials-dealer here in Denmark.
