eskimo Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Ok i've been offered a swap for my mod for a Toxsin. Following the reviews on here and elsewhere i have learnt a few things. I'm still a little skeptic about how they ride in certain ways. My mind is pretty set on the Toxsin one with Toxsin forks. I'm curious to how they bunny hop, the Toxsin one with Toxsin fork will be a little different i know but will the extra bb rise be worth it along with the added length? I know it will be a little harder with the fork but will it be easy enough still?With the Toxsin fork will it feel very street or just slightly more trialsy?As for the Toxsin 2 they are shorter. Is this more streety? How would it feel without the Toxsin fork?Most people say they're real nice but i'm wondering what they're really like in comparison to a Control. The frames seem to be more of trials bike as they seem rather big.I do have a Koxxlevel boss 1065 so i will ride that if all else fails.

Ash-Kennard Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 i have an 06 long control, and i f**king love sams toxsin 1, literally the perfect bike, light strong and solid, i tapped it ot manual, to frontwheel and to backwheel up a 43" wall the first time i tried, he runs the ashton fork and it it actually perfect, if only i could afford one...

I wonder what it would be like with a 35+ bb rise using the Toxsin forks then. I guess i will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 hi, ive owned both models and it depends what kind of rising you are into.. the toxsin 2 is more for comps and people who like shorter geo frames but still rides ok, now the toxsin 1 is a beast, it is very strong and the geo is just perfect, i really do swear by them if you ask anyone who knows me they think im talking crap about my bike until they get on it haha, the only problem i find is that you can never ride anyone elses bike because the feel rubish when you have a toxsin, even though the geo is long it is still very possible to bunnyhop and do all the streety moves ect as for taps i couldnt of asked for a better frame when i got this frame i started jumping into the 50 marks, sidehops are awesome you can place the bike how you want it to because of how light it is rarther than the bike predicting your style, gaps are also very good aswell because again the bike is light you can maneuver the bike how you want.i was running zoo forks untill i snapped them but i ave now got urbans on go.the only thing i find bad about the toxsin frames is that there is very very little left in the uk now but apart fromt hat they realy are a awesome frame Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
