josh p Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I just got my hands on some green koxx bloxx, I went for a ride and they were sh*t . I decided to carry on with my ride thinking they had to be worn in, but there still crap. I did just what tarty bikes said, with the light grind. But they don't work. I then got them a bit wet because it says they worked well in it. They were even sh*ter. any one got any ideas. I think I will send them backjosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeley! Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Give them a little longer than a day eh? there could be numerous ways y they are working sh*te? a few being that maybe your bleed is gash? the pads may not be set up correctly? do you run a booster? i may think you have got a nice grind but it may well not be, in my past experience when i have used koxx greens i gave them a medium/harsh grind and they worked absoloutley EMENSE!!!! i just dont think you have given them enough time to bed in, why slag off a product that alot of people have used and they work emense on every other persons bike 1 being 'Waddy' his back brake is awsome! Just because they dont work straight out of the packet doesn't meen you have to come on the forum to slag off a product that i and many others know are perfectley good!!!!

Token Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 dear o dear, take them out the cylinders, put them in a envelope and address it to me job done and no more whining or.....setup your brake. Koxx greens are widely reknown for being super sex, especially in wet just bare with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
