  1. Hi

    They viz are being runned by average amount of people in the uk, and so far i have heard nothing wrong about them, and they are being used all over the world *Visit www.vizbikes.com* to see where the dealers are located. I have only ever used one pair of viz forks on my mod, and they are the prototype ones and so far they are still going solid. They have been about for about 4-5 month il say.

    Dan@vizbikes.  :D

    your using zoo/echo forks on your mod (Y)

  2. i think tart built ben rowlands an atomlab rim a while back and lets just say it didnt last and ben got pissed off with it so went back to a 521 after a week or two...

    i dont think tart was to impressed with the way it built up either...might be wrong.

  3. nice.

    this isnt on camera, but after he did that drop to ankle smasher he said...

    "it will be allright in a min, i just need to walk around for a bit" (Y)" or something like that :D real smooth was that :P just thought i would let you in on that :D haha someones lost it :D

  4. i see what you are getting at, they arent "the best trials riders in the world" they are nothing like the cousts etc but then they do have a different style so in a way they cant be compared. arg its hard to explain, i know what you mean though i just didnt agree with your statement up there^^ (Y)

  5. Not trying to 'pick' on anyone here, or put anyone down - but, how can these riders be compared!?

    Tim, Elliot etc... are very good UK street riders, but, if you stick them in the bike show arena with the likes of Giaco Coust, Dani Comas or Vince Hermance, they'd be lost!  (Y)

    not really, they have different ways of riding. im sure they wouldnt be "lost". i bet they would be able to have the crowds gasping, just in a different way to how the cousts etc would.

  6. Hey

    The curve viz forks are lower in the next batch, its only the first  batch that are high because viz didnt measure it right?, but the viz urban forks are alot lower and it is currently being tested by Rowan Johns.

    Best regards Dan@vizbikes :)

    ah right (N) sounds....good.

    the thing is, rowan isnt exactly heavy on forks is he so people arent going to think "ah ye they are strong". he was using them pace forks for ages...

    you want someone heavy on forks like cultiv8ed rossi to be testing them. then people would know what they could stand up to...

    this is just my opinion, im not trying to dig you a hole here or anything dan.

  7. Ok, nah, thats ok, everyone has had their own experiences. I ave found the best forks I have ever used all happen to be alloy forks with steel steerers!

    The steerer seemed to be pretty thick to me, but I guess only time will tell, I didnt examine it in too much detail.. It has held up for tonnes of nosehops so far though!

    The forks I would most compare the build and looks of the viz forks to, however, would be the pace 26" expert trials forks, but much shorter. They both happen to be my favourite mod and stock forks

    how much did you pay for the viz forks squit man?

    also im not being harsh on dan here or anything but, when dan gave me a set of viz forks i wasnt impressed with first impressions. the bonded steerer looks pretty damn sketchy and they aint half heavy. also they are bloody high which some people may like but it isnt my thing. they wont be going on my bike thats all i can say but that is mainly due to the geometry (sp) of them. :o

    but then again they might be really good. they just havent been tested at all really this is why there needs to be some propper testing going on by the team to make sure they are allright before they go on sale, especially for that price.

  8. :closedeyes: Last year I think i used about 3-4 sets of Plazmatic CRM pads and still use them (all on a grind). Deffinately the BEST pads around :-

    LMAO dont forget you used the black plastic of a set for about a month :P

    um set of brown koxx, red koxx and viz pads. ohand a load of v brake pads.
