williams Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Wow that was really nice! Not a fan of that front fork though, but that's not my buisness and he rides amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Enjoyed that though I thought a couple of the clips where people walked/joged in front of the camera should have been re shot. Moved the focus away from the rider for no reason. I don't know why he uses those forks either, but his riding didn't look sluggish because of them like some others do.

Mark W Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Think the forks are for the same reason as Ryan Leech. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perez Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Forks and seat are the first moves you have to make if you want to travel and live from your bike riding without making comps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Seat maybe, but forks definitely not - guys like Ashton, Andrei Burton, Kenny, Danny Mac, Ali, the Triboulats, etc. all do shows and get to travel around a bit with their bikes despite not running suspension.

LEON Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Indeed, plus...Ryan wouldn't have had 15 odd years of Marzocchi sponsorship if he'd used a rigid fork, even if he preferred using rigids, he made money from using suspension. It just added to the mtb look and obviously worked in mtb mad Canada. It wouldn't give you any more/less success these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyBiker Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 ryan was riding a mx pro most of his norco life,that thing weights in at around 1.8kg with the mods he made. not bad,and with the right setup a sus fork can be good for allroundish riding. wouldnt swap my rigids for anything though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
