muddyfox Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Anyone used one? Just broke my koxx fork and need a replacement..It'll take a couple of weeks to get another koxx fork and a couple of days to get the V!Z. So are they any good???

Ash-Kennard Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 waddy uses them, they are atomz forks, but the disc mount is positions slightly lower, so they really are excellent forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I got some curvy viz ones a month or something ago. First impressions are good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I was planning on getting some just not sure if I like curved forks, got Zoo forks at the moment which are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigman Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 waddy uses them, they are atomz forks, but the disc mount is positions slightly lower, so they really are excellent forksThey are not the same as atomz forks actualy, they have a different shape to them aswell as the normal disc mount, the viz are longer and have less tyre clearance at the top!They are still good forks though.Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 ok so im in the dilemma too, do i go for viz! forks or echo controls???? am i right in thinking that the steerer is a bonded steel one on the viz! forks or have i read that wrong?

Personaly dude i would go for the Viz forks, they may be a tad longer but if the controls are anything like the ones i had the discmount will crack quickly (unless you don't do large front wheel stuff u may be ok with controls.)Tartybikes have the viz forks on there site, go have a ganders.Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 the one piece crown and steerer was the thing that got me sold. i had smart guys before these. lasted about 2 years or something, before i found a tiny crack where the leg meets the crown. bonded steerers are shite. the deng way of pressing and welding is a bodge. one-piece is the way to go.
