Ben John-Hynes Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Because there's so much leverage coming from the forks because they're so long, the headtube can/most likely will snap off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youde become like the legendary 20" sus rider.what about the guy who welded a monty and an echo lite together with rear sus i bet taps feel quite nice with bouncy forks. i can't see the forks being to bad, i mean stock headtubes don't rip out or crack when they have longer forks and a bigger front wheel to do moar damage...

trials ryan Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Wow! bet it is beast to gap to front. So much suck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayshell Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) not the first. I ran a sucessful suspension bike for a long time. Eventually i stopped cause magnesium lowers are too weak and all suspension forks are magnesium. Qr-20 forks are way to much rise and heavy. Xc forks would be more than strong enough if they were aluminum, but magnesium is weaker than plastic imo.
