G_! Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 This is a bike for a kid so it doesnt need to be a top bike. I loved the mix of the old and new school together on the same bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G_! Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 why this kind of fork? just for the look? I dont know, maybe to keep the old school look of the brand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onza pro series guy Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 why this kind of fork? just for the look? I don't mind the crowns, it keeps the retro look but they look so thin in one of those close-ups, which wouldn't be so bad if the tubing was the stronger cylinder shape, but it's made weaker by the way in which square tubing has been used.

Andrew Smith Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 looks very well made, if they bring out a 26' frame with decent geo, i would buy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 The most frequent question I get asked is where customers can get heavier forks that'll reduce their manoeuvrability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onza pro series guy Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) The most frequent question I get asked is where customers can get heavier forks that'll reduce their manoeuvrability. The amount of material (or a little less maybe) would be fine for me on a cylinder shaped fork, I just don't trust square stuff, especially not in trials and especially not that thin.

Matt Vandart Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Other than old school. The most frequent question I get asked is where customers can get heavier forks that'll reduce their manoeuvrability. That makes no difference, I am still suprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
