Yeah, this is a year old. And what the hell? You have two posts but obviously know what you're doing. Did you make a second account just to bump a shitty thread?
The KMX is a failure of an idea. So heavy that it's hard to get good speed with pushing, and the pegs thing probably wouldn't work either. I could only see this done on the megaramp, but I don't think anyone would waste their time getting good enough at it.

The KMX in itself may very well be too heavy, I have not gotten my hands on one to fix the obvious weight flaws... the wheels. Steel is bad.
As for it being a failure outright. I disagree. The Kickbike (as in the brand) has a decent offroad/downhill model that can be cut into a nice street/park scoot. The cutting shortens the wheelbase... You swap down to a 16 wheel and it goes ok.
The biggest problem with the KMX and MIBO is the wheels. The resistance level at that diameter is, to be nice about it, bad.
This is a failure to understand who wants the bWheel scoots. Ok, imo it is.
I don't need nor want that much deck space.
One foot on the deck, one a peg. You can do a bigger wheel and not increase the wheel base. You can approach bWheel with the same stance style as a sWheel.
And that's where the designs are going wrong.
As for making a second account, this account is no sockpuppet. I don't know if you suspect this is a sock of KMX (Robert) or somebody else. And besides, how many Australian proxy servers are there anyway ? None active via a web interface that I know of; bandwidth is too expensive to break even. Drop a PM if this post just increases the suspicion, I'll try and work it some kind of proof out with you.
I'm old and bald. And I know how to forum.
Edit:
If you can lose the respect from somebody just by doing what you did to get the respect... You're not losing anything of value.

Given I have no idea as to if the KMX is being manufactured or if the design can be bought for self make, it's rather unlikely.
(IF I were a rep... This is not the way to pimp. Infact, I wouldn't get financially involved without a rebranding... KMX is already a brand of trike. That space is too close to scoots)
