Miroed Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I look for a fork for my inspired frame (it’s my first experience to build a trial bike). Previously I was riding a street bike and had a Cr-Mo fork from DMR. So I found that all trial forks have an offset (from 35 to 50 mm), but I don’t really want to have that. My thoughts now are about Black Market Cr-Mo fork what weight is about 1,13 kilo (that’s not much for me). How it will influence on the way of driving or whatever, just want to know other people opinion, how stupid it is =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main thing is strength though and as you do bigger/better moves you'll need it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miroed Posted June 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Thx, but I believe that strong is not a problem. I’m little bit worry that I decrease the length of the bike and geometry most probably will be unusual to the trial. Cause Cr-Mo forks they are just straight if you see my point.
