Krisboats Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 The t rex is the same geo as the old t rex but with a hydo formed down tube, i beed riding it a few months now and its prety solid no flex from pedaling, and no need for a brake booster.The old rex was stiff anyway, and it works better without a booster. Hate to sound boring but the old design was nicer, this looks like they've just hydroformed it for the sake of it.All you needed to do with the rex's was make it 300g lighter, and give it 5 or 10mm bottom bracket rise.

Fixed Pants™ Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Wow, i thought onza were keeping big seat tubes and a not so low stand over height, obviously not!Really like the mod, looks very 'with the times' and the stock is real nice too. Colour is cool too, a lot better than the current.Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robonatomz Posted August 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 well like i said, i took the photo's with my phone, i dont have a camera! sorry. they came out better than i expected anyway.the rex geo is identical to the old one, the hydro down tube, just makes it look a little more moden and looses a bit of weight, dont get me wrong its still not the lightest of frames but we'r working on it.i think the 0 bb height feels good, i changed from a +35 jb to this, and it feels much better.all i can say about the 20" is man its low! top tube and down tube allmost toutch! lol il gat the geo later when i see mr b, love you xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Whats the weight difference between the old and new rex's ?Old rex's were 2.55kg i believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe@Onza Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Thanks rob, (See you up Fort William by the way)Some one said earlier that it just looks like the old one with a hydroformed down tube, Well done, Your right. We decided to give it a make over, Change the colour and down tube. The Rex is one of the toughest frames we ever produced, thats its attribute. Great for learning on because lets face it, You dink your bike a little more when your learning.What Rob doesn't know or he might but didn't mention is that we have put it on a diet. Weights are not available yet but lets just say it will be tough with out such a weight penalty. ALL PROTOTYPES ARE DONE IN BLACK, DOES NOT MEAN THAT IS THE FINAL COLOUR. IF I HEAR ONE MORE TIME THAT ITS A BETTER THEN THE REST OF THE RANGE I SHALL GET EVERY SINGLE MODEL DONE IN BLACK FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Just jesting Or is it gonna be black????

Joe@Onza Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Whats the projected price for the t-rex?Its not going to be called the T-Rex, Plus thats a Mike question and he has gone on holiday. Sorry. I'd guess about £500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Its not going to be called the T-Rex, Plus thats a Mike question and he has gone on holiday. Sorry. I'd guess about £500.frame or full bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Full bike I'd hope, otherwise mike's 'we're not koxx' sig wouldn't be up to much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onza Kieron Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 £500. It would just have to be a full build for that price, I cannot imagine a single person buying one otherwise, also, please just put a 'normal' head tube on it rather than GASH internal headset jobs.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Yeah I assume thats full build cos the t-rex at the moment is around there.Whats it going to be called then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Some one said earlier that it just looks like the old one with a hydroformed down tube, Well done, Your right.Nah, i said its the same as the old rex geometry wise but it just looks like you've hydroformed it for the sake of hydroforming it. There was nothing wrong with the old shape at all and i personally think the old one looked better.Ok, New 26" range out soon =. Black, Pearl White, Blood red, Icy blue.Now that DOES sound good. Much better than the kiddie flames the last one came with. I stripped mine to plain silver and it looks so much nicer, though if i end up getting zoo forks it'll be sprayed matt black or metallic charcoal/smoke. You just need to put on some interesting paint jobs really... the new koxx coust is a perfect example of it, awesome colour and interesting decals. If you guys went the same way decals wise and had interesting images on the new paint colours you'd be laughing as people handed over their cash.
