HargrovesToby Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Hiya there,i was just wondering, do people ever grind their koxx front rims as i have a set of koxx rims and i want to run a front maggie and i was wondering if people grind the anodising off and just run a maggie or does it weaken it too much??cheers people,Toby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramps Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 You can do it, i dont think it will weaken the rim it doesnt do anything to a rear why would it weaken a front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 im sure cls grinds his front rim, but i dont think its a koxxDont see how grinding would weaken it to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Matt Staples had a ground front Koxx rim for a while. And if CLS did it, then it must make you awesome at bikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Dave Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 (edited) you can grind the rim quite a few times before it really weakens it. i think they recomend around 7 grinds max on a koxx rim. but it also depends how harsh a grind you do.
