Does anyone else think the frames look like spaceships?
I don't understand why the flat and freestyle frames are butted at the top of the neck, doesn't make any sense unless you just want to use a really big clamp for some reason. |

Would the Trials one be lighter?

Looks like too much CAD, not enough RIDing. About the butting, I would imagine the idea is to be able to use 31.8 or whatever the current OD seat tube is and lathe out some of the metal between where you need the clamp and where it meets the crown... def seems like to much work to be able to reuse the same seatclamp and post, haha. Although I am no expert in concept spacecraft design, so.... who knows. Last edited by agentQ; 2010-04-07 at 12:08 PM. |

I just don't understand why they don't make a single frame for flat, street, and trials with different size necks. I mean what is the point in making three different frames when you can make one?

Those frames will never be built the way that they are shown. Most have really horrible stress risers in their front plate which would act as can openers on the seat tube.
Other things to consider are how Koxx is going to build the frames. If they weld everything together they are going to loose all those clean lines in the designs. Assuming the crowns are machined out of solid aluminum on the Flat, Freestyle and Trial they will all be substantially heavier than a KH and cost more to build. Looks like a bad case of fashion over function. I do like the bearing holders though.

Anyone else have a layer of plastic peel off their Koxx-one frame?
Mines an Alien Backflip and it started doing that a few months ago.
