MAX (M.A.D) Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Well i havn't had any experiance with the forks before, but reading the description they seem like descent forks. But it Recommends them for lightweight competiton riders only, so they might not be the ones so to speak for you. Hope this helps, Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam 94 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 I have echo sl forks 20". seem fine for me, flex a tiny bit but seem ok superlight too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Hawkins Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 I had these forks for about a month and a half and they were brilliant until they snapped on the top Magura mount weld. I only weigh around 6 ½ stone and I’m not very ruff on the bike. I was told that they snapped due to being light weight competition forks and that the Echo Lites or Urbans are a much better fork.

BigAl Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hey, i have these forks, have had them for about 3 months now, they flex loads. I dont think there much better than echo lite forks to be honest, they would be good if your a light weight comp rider. Im the complete opposite to that But anyway i would just stick with echo lite forks. Alot stronger and will last ALOT longer:)Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
