Lawnmowerman Posted October 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 To be honest I haven't tried one yet. I've hardly ridden it because of the shite summer and no-one ever comes out riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Yeah they are mx comps. Feather light, strong and amazingly smooth, love them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 a well set up mx comp has to be the best value for money fork out there in my humble opinion. pretty good all rounders, light, smooth and amazingly cheap for what you get.I had the sexy '04 ones with the drilled out crown. that years model is the sexiest imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 (edited) Looks like it needs lower bars to me.Thats really nice though, how did the cranks get like that? you polish them?And how do you find those rims with a maggy?

Lawnmowerman Posted October 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 The bars are at the perfect height for me. Cranks came like that, scared to scratch them now lol and the maggie is amazing in the dry but shite in the wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeymoped Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 i love dmr's and should be getting my sidekick built up in the next 3 weeks or so, i'll be using mine for hardtail d/h, 4x and dirt jumping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Honestly I think it looks horrible and seems like it would ride even worse, having ridden a few different transitions I think they are best kept rigid, but meh...what ever makes you happy. I'll get a pic of my 4X bike with 24's for you, that is a pimpy bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted November 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 It rides like a bag of shit with rigids, I've tried going back to them twice now and it was like trying to bunny hop a road bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeymoped Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 mine will have a 24inch on the back and a 26inch on the front, i've a muddy fox team 4x bike in this set up (ex athertons bike) and it rode brilliantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
