gazmaz03 Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 That looks bad and it could of been even worse because just imagen doing a drop and your forks fall apart or maybe a front touch. All I can say is get some new forks :) What forks are they look like echo urbans to me. Gaz (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been scrolling down the page and seen all the rest of the forks, not good guys. Think they were disigend to break. :) Gaz (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they were disigend to break. :P Gaz :S ← Fattys are still amazing forks, especialy when u realise that mine, the snapped ones pictured were around 5 years old, yes, that is correct, as they were the original fatty R forks, with Fatty R on the fork legs, all the new ones have moved the breather hole, which is the line at which it snapped further up the fork, so it is now less likely to happen, Unless u are Matt Burrows :lol: Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_P Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 hahahah nice one u willy!
