LauraPalmer Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 As they are the only forks that come close to the geo I like (400x35)and have a nice simple look, I´m thinking about buying them.I know the new Echo SL are the same geo, but I don´t trust them, they are too light... So does anyone have experience with them? Please inklucde your riding style, weight and time of usage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 So does anyone have experience with them? Please inklucde your riding style, weight and time of usage. They're comparable to Trialtechs, very stiff and also very strong, at the same time slightly lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraPalmer Posted January 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 thanks - sounds promising. Did you ride it yourself or is a friend of you having it? how long is it already lasting? Anyone else has experience with them? (Or has someone a IS2000 or +20 TryAll disc fork in new or newish condition lying around) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 I rode them temporarily while waiting for some 4bolt SL forks (my choice for the last 3 years due to weight). Sold the Bonz forks on, don't know what's going on with them now but I really doubt they'll have packed up. If for some reason you don't want Trialtechs then getting a pair of Bonz forks should be a no-brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraPalmer Posted January 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Due to the good reviews I would love to ride a TT, but 410mm length combined with 40 mm rake is what takes me off them - I guess they would feel like a 400x45mm rake fork, which is not what I´m after - oh boy, if I would have known Aprebic-TryAll forks would be discontinued, I would have bought a few pairs... The upcoming TNN forks sound awesome, but 30 mm rake would be overkill I guess with my 72,5 ha - I´m very picky about my ha, but I´d rather have it a tad too slack than a tad too steep... btw anyone out there who rode a really steep setup - f.e. an old Justice (73 ha if i remember correct)or a first gen Cannibal with a TryAll fork or maybe a Rockman fork?
