alexm Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I've been riding the Koxx frame shown in this video for over 5 years. I love the bike despite how ill it makes others feel when they ride it. Unfortunately a crack in the headtube region, which occurred approx 18 months ago, has come to the point where it is of concern and I no longer feel entirely comfortable riding the frame.I'm purchasing a new frame that should complement my riding style and any future media I generate will be on the new bike. Because of this I thought it was worth putting out a 30 second clip of me riding the Koxx. This was filmed last weekend.Anyway, please stream or download (much better quality) from http://www.vimeo.com/2893599Have a look at http://canberratrials.com if you want to look at a few photos I like of other people I know. I hope to be adding to this in the not too distant future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexm Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Thanks for all of the comments. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much for what it was. I will definitely try and make a full length video, but don't hold your breath. I do also aim to put out some more shorter videos if I feel the riding/filming isn't worthy of a full length web video.The song I used was by the Crookers, titled Embrace the Martian.I believe the Koxx is a MkII - the first of the frames with the big black sticker (after the first frame with green stickers). My new frame is going to be a second hand BT 8.0. I think I'll like the BB rise because I struggle to lift the front end on my current bike.

alexm Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Joe - just for you markwartmod2.mpg. You must have a strange memory of that video because I just struggled to watch through from start to fin. I have no idea how many years ago I filmed that.Ben - good to hear. I'll keep an eye out for your future vids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zordon Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 A Koxx frame that lasted 5 years? Must have been a manufacturing defect.I like your style, still remember the old good vids from canberratrials I was growing up on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 That wa really good, and Kudos to who filmed it too!It was just so smooth Proper teaser though, look forward to the next big video. Is the frame destroyed yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyota200x Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 You have such a great style. For a while I had thought that you quit riding. It is so great to see some recent footage. Can you take a picture of the bike and the crack before it is taken apart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
