View Full Version : Designs stolen form toxsin!!

I really feel I must post about the misfortune that we at toxsin recently experienced. It started off a few months ago when top designer 'Mast' (as I like to call him) fisted the factory with his new design. After leaving it on the table in the office, Mast returned to find that his plans where not there. After talking with the guys who work in the factory and with his friend who runs it, Mast is sure who took the design.:o
Yesterday I received an update on the situation. Apparently another factory has started to produce a copy of the frame. So I really have to get the point across that toxsin are the designers of any pirate copies of this frame. I've posted some links below so you can keep an eye out for any imitations.

Either way, this is a pretty innovative way to advertise your frame. By drawing loads of attention to the thread because of the "theft", then plastering loads of pictures of it up - good work Adam, your techniques are getting better ;)

do other countries use Australia's "empathy with underdog" attitude here or more of a "just world" criticism?
It's hilarious, in the last election, both candidates were trying to win votes by continually expressing their pessimism about their chances of election. "I don't really think I can win this one, but I'd like to point out some of the flaws the government/opposition has while I'm at it". Funny shit.
Frame looks nice. Caisso nice.

I was thinking that some people would think that... Honestly its the truth. Just you wait. In a few weeks there will be another one the same.
I guess that frame is alright. If you paid attention to detail and were a rider you would realize that those dropouts may be cheap and look great but they suck balls. Get a dropout that uses a hanger design that resists snapping, there are tons out there. Then stop giving your business to some gaybo manufacturer.

Does it matter how neat they look? They can be the prettiest welds on this planet and still be the weakest. You can't look at a weld and tell the strength.
Yeh but brett there is a 99.99% chance that if the weld is neater it probably is a better or stronger weld as the welder is obviously better.....

Seeing as I've passed my structural steel cert in all positions as well as pipe and pressure welding with TIG...yeah, I have welded. Oh, I'm only 16.
toxsin1
05-14-2005, 02:12 PM
So basically we have proved that neat welds equal a strong frame.
Tanner
05-14-2005, 02:23 PM
No, we havent. There are too many variables in a tig weld that could contribute to a failiure. A neat weld can have so many errors in it. Undercut, porosity, uncomplete penetration and slag inclusions are all things that could happen in ANY weld, nice looking or not. Cleanliness of the metal to be welded has a HUGE play in tig welds. Are your manufacturers wiping down the aluminum/filler rod with acetone prior to welding? Are their consumables clean? (tungsten/cups) Is the gas filtered and pure? Most importantly, are the machine settings correct? Hey, you can make one hell of a pretty weld on 1/2" aluminum plate at 80 amps, but don't expect it to hold up worth shit. A pretty weld DOES NOT mean it's a strong weld.
stop statin the obvious you are bound to have all them things correct if u know wat your doing but if the weld looks shit do you think that would hold up good?probably not and how can it be a neat looking weld with undercut as you could see this at the edge of the weld.... :wuteva:
And the argument was if you had a neat lookin weld and one that looked shit which one would you bet on to being the strongest.

BrettM
05-14-2005, 02:53 PM
So basically we have proved that neat welds equal a strong frame.
My PX had neat welds and I broke one every 6 months or so on the weld.
If a weld is in a spot where it shouldn't be in, or you have a fucking gorgeous perfect weld, greatest in the world weld, holding two pieces of metal that are too thin for what you are using it for, that weld is going fucking down.
I don't give a fuck how pretty those welds are. Gimme 6 or so months and I'd be willing to bet this thread will be full of I told you so's from people you have pissed off. A pretty weld with a gorgeous crack through it to match. Its never happened before..............

05-14-2005, 03:08 PM
I have rode and owned many frames and I put my money on my no.1 toxsin being the strongest of the lot. Apart form a ti frame I had, its the stiffest frame that I have owned too.
i dont think anybody said hte toxsin was a bad, weak, or gay bike.. stop being abrasive. youre not selling anything to me by being gay on the internet.

Hey, if someone stole your frame design, then that means we should be able to buy 'em cheaper in a few months from Deng instead of from you idiots. I'm gonna go check the Zoo site,,,
BrettM
05-14-2005, 03:25 PM
brett your a fat bastard we all know this but you would have to be jabba the hut or ruff as fuck to snap a frame in 6 months
I'm a marathon runner. I swear I'm huge.
My point was I broke them there because of the publicly admitted to design flaw from PX. It had a gorgeous weld. Looked tough as shit. I'm not a hard rider, I've only ever broken those frames. However it broke on a very beautiful weld because of a flaw in materials. You say your frame has beautiful welds? So what? We will all see just how tough it is in a little bit. Just relax until then.
You are a fucking idiot. Get some reading comprehension so I don't have to explain this a third time.
Check my thread in the Australia forum. This really makes me not want to have anything to do with them.
BrettM
05-14-2005, 03:31 PM
[My point was I broke them there because of the publicly admitted to design flaw from PX.]
Are you fuckin thick there is your answer how the fuck do you know that a toxsin has a flaw :blah:
I never said it did. I am saying that I don't know if it does or not and it is my proof that unlike what you said above you can't judge a frames strength by its good looking welds. My frame had great welds, but was flawed. All I was doing this whole time was proving you wrong?
Get it yet?

Rush you should be sayin something positive about the frames not questioning about us.This thread was about the designs being stolen and because nearly everyone on this forum is so paranoid and negative they thought it was for publicity when the frames have already been shown by him and by you so think before you speak.
Go and read every post on trials-forum about Toxsin and Adam. That and the responses from the people supposedly promoting the product have made me think again about importing them. Im not saying I wont do it, just that it has made me think twice.
You can stop posting anytime you like and save yourself further embarrassment.

How about getting back to the original topic of this thread... no one cares or give's a flying fuck about who you are and who you ride with..... the point being is that the ORIGINAL post was from someone who is repping for the company...crying about stolen designs, when the company rip's off designs from other company's .that speak's quantities about who thay are and their shoddy practice's.. not how the quality of the weld's are or who like's them. and based on that alone they/he should be flamed from the get go.

Its really not neccessary for me to bring the reputation of a company into question on a public message board so PM me if you want to.
i was stating that ppl over here like the frame and you have ppl on here saying stupid shit like there going to snap when all they have to say is they dont like the frame and thats there opinion...

Ok/ Im glad you guys have had your fun with the bitching... Now back to the point of the thread
To me trial riding is all about creating a natural high. Its for fun and self actualization. But it seems when money and egos get involved all the true assets of the sport get thrown out the window. Instead of making friends with new riders the complete opposite can happen. I really think we as riders should get our act together and make children.

what drags trials down is when a company decides to make something for the market, and in the process think they're doing everyone a huge favour. Just because it's a small sport doesn't mean we can't be discerning consumers and it doesn't mean you can feel offended at that and abuse us when we criticise your product or your whinging.
That's YOU mr company man Base Bikes or Toxsin or whoever you are this week.

Ok, so he is just some kid in the UK who thinks he is part of the company when he just has a web site and imports a few frames into the UK...something anybody can do...then he should stop saying "we" when referring to Toxsin
He is giving Toxsin a bad name with his unprofessional comments.
I just bought a Toxsin directly from the manufacturer and I can honestly say that I received the best customer service that I could hope for. A great price, immediate shipping, they sent it via a secure and traceable shipping company, they e-mailed me pics of the shipping receipt and of the bike prior to packing the box, they sent pics of all other included items, and of the outside of the packed box. They respond to e-mails right away and the product is very good, I'm completely happy with my Toxsin (Ok, I've only had one ride...) and I plan to order more from this company, namely the bars because they are sweet...
So I'd suggest that people don't listen to this guy from the UK and that they don't base their judgments on Toxsin from his comments...he is not a representative of the company! I'd hate to see a new trials company offering a good product for a good price with excellent service damaged as a result of misconceptions generated by inappropriate comments left by one person...
