Title: kuwahara 2008
Post by: 4516 on October 24, 2007, 01:15 AM: Seen the mongoose post.
I think Kuwahara are giving it a good go.
Looks racey, modern in the right way.

Post by: thesku11s on October 24, 2007, 09:47 AM: still think it would be way cooler if compaies like kuwahara made lightweight Crmo bikes instead, and still had V bars!

So they could be a race bike more like a dialled mx20, and still be "cool" with the freestyle kids.

They had a really nice cro-mly frame out last year (I think it was called the Maser) but they only seemed to sell it in Japan.

Post by: 4516 on October 25, 2007, 12:34 PM: DJ last years didnt sell very well because of problems with distribution. They have a new distributer for 08 so Kuwahara should be bigger in 2008

Post by: dialledbikes on October 25, 2007, 01:59 PM: I don't think the cro-mo ones were sold outside of Japan. I might be wrong though.
