  1. Why would they want there money back, they would have known what there were buying, as i documented it acurately. it was a risk they would have taken just like the risk i took when i bought it.
  2. I snapped my frame at Barrow farm this weekend and as requested here are the pics. BEFORE AFTER
  3. How do you what i do, you only rode with me once! Anyway it was doin a gap! and yeah the rockman went so now im on the prowl for a new frame. I dont think i could get anything that rides as nice as the Koxx
  4. I would if i didnt snap my frame today lol

  6. Nope, the bike is amazin, rides perfect! It actually makes me want to ride constantly!
  7. Anyone up for riding there on sat, would be good putting some faces to names and to learn a few things off you guys.
  8. Spot on there mate, couldnt be arsed to explain though lol. The dent isnt too bad, just doesnt photo well, oh well people missed out on a bargain and im enjoyin every second on the Koxx. I will update soon, got a hope mono carbon/ti rear brake and some new tyres now.
  9. Patients is not one of my best qualitys lol.
  10. Ok mate, thanks, i will give them a ring tomorrow.
  11. I Have a 1998 Monty X Lite 221 im restoring/upgrading. The headtube is 1 1/4 inch and it needs a new headset. anyone know where i can get one from or if its possible to get one so i can run 1 1/8 inch forks? Thank you in advance.
  12. Echo and zoo are the same company.
  13. Its all right saying going for a da bomb and other cheap bikes but the ride experiance on them will be crap compared to what he could get with his budget. If you got the money, buy the best second hand bike you can with it, at least if you dont like the sport your more likely to get most your money back and if you do love it, you got a good bike to advance on! Things break in trials weather you get a da bomb or a Koxx!
  14. Height dont matter, im 6'4" and rided a mod. dont let people tell you itr shouldnt be done.
  15. Them bars dont look like they have 85mm rise.
  16. For learning i would recomend a mod too. dont let people tell you your too tall for one either, im 6'4" and i ride a mod. I like the look of an Echo lite 09, think that would be good as a first bike and still be good enough as you get better, excellent spec for the money. Good luck with finding a bike you like.
  17. I know its late notice but a few of us are goin to hearne bay tomorrow day. Anyone gonna be about?
  18. So they have had a bad name for 4 years but you still used them only last year? And your first sentance seems like its taking the piss out of people who still use them.
  19. Price seems really high to me, you can get better second hand frames for that money.
