rolo Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Hey guys, I'm asking for a little advice here on what forks to get. Christmas is fast approaching so what would be better? Echo Team 07, or Koxx Forxx? Much appreciated. Rolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam-Griffin Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Team's, the koxx forxx always snap lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Echo Lites.They are the best forks I have ever used, and lightweight, and much cheaper than the Koxx ones, which apparently snap more easily but don't hold me to that. Tarty Adam mentioned it on here in one of his Czar/Monty topics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!Billy_BOY! Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Echo Lites.They are the best forks I have ever used, and lightweight, and much cheaper than the Koxx ones, which apparently snap more easily but don't hold me to that. Tarty Adam mentioned it on here in one of his Czar/Monty topics.Ive ran Koxx forks before and didnt snap them, but then again i dont usually tank to front wheel or hook, but been put through there places with taps! i was always checking them for signs of wear or cracks coming on, the 1st lil creak on the front and the forks were out getting aa good check! hahaha and is a pain to keep de-greasing / re-greasing them up, not worth the hastle!Just get some Echo Teams / lites.... there both a lot better value for money and everyone runs em! so they cant be that bad! if not look into some Viz forks or something... to be honest most of the forks on the market are pretty solid, just depends if your a weight weenie, or want something cheep and cheerfull!! the Viz ones are good if you want curved... if you want straight forks just wack some old Onza 1s on if your not bothered about the weight! there really durable, fresh lick of paint or something!

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated. Keep them flowing! Rolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ticker Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Get the echo lites. I had monty prs and they were a bit flexy.I've got lites now and even though the steerers far too short, they put up with all the abuse i've given them.

Dave Anscombe Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 ive snapped 2 koxx forks......echo ones are nice ......yet to really test my ko bike forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 ZOO Python forks maybe? They're really stiff, don't know about others as those were the only proper forks I had.You could also try 20" Echo Urbans but those will undoubtedly be weaker than the Python.
