this frame breaks very often at this area, my friend has broken two psychonnectas in less than one year, they always break at this area. this frame is very weak.

By saying that I shouldn't believe everything I ear you're calling everyone who stated to have seen bad stuff about kgb LIARS, that ain't right...

Why would anyone bother to throw down a brand like KGB? Personal vengeance? There's so many brands and riders and enemies outhere why should KGB be the target? It's not like they've been stealing market and popularity to other brands/riders...

One thing is suspicious though.
Why do the other rider owned small companies sell there frames so expensive in comparison to KGB? KGB is selling their frames at the same price that big companies like KHE, Arestic, OG, etc. can get you, how can that be? Have they discovered the "gun powder of labor"? Is there a place in the world that the other rider owned small companies don't know of where one can get cheaper manufacturing at small quantites? I find it hard to believe...

Yes, their frames are popular, damn! They look sexy and original! No wonder they are popular and sell well but I'd be amazed if that wasn't the case anyway! They take advantage of the current fashion, be original, be colorful, ride a KGB frame!

Strange thing is that months ago (maybe a year already) this same discussion was taking place @ Pedal forums and already there were complaints from riders who saw there frames getting all warped out. To be honest I was a bit sceptic couse the designs always looked too radical to me but not enough to bend like that, I was wrong...

Are there production faults happening @ KGB parts factories? Maybe... maybe not and maybe the ppl who happen to have had problems are just unlucky but I'd sure like to get to the bottom of this...

KGB is very popular
leading to lots of people having KGB's
as in ofcourse their gonna break every now in again and if you hear it from alot of people its because alot of people have them
any frame with break. and kgb is no different. they are a great frame.

let's say,...

normal percentage of breaking frames out of 1 batch is 5%.
if for example Quamen makes only 100 frames, then 5 frames break then it's normal. and for us, 5 frames break is not big deal. 5 is small number.
then KGB makes 2000 frames, then 100 frames break we won't call this normal.. 100 frames is very big number then we can start bashing KGB... especially if 50 out of the 100 is Pedal or Global-flat member! if we look just a little bit deeper, 100 frames are still 5% out of 2000 frames they produced. therefore 100 frames break is still normal.

well the thing is.. everything breaks.
and now with those tiny fancy tubings and combined with less skilled welders.. we can't expect much anymore. go get yourselves the OG Premium Laggers they should last you your lifetime heheheh
