Haven't noticed much about the forks, but the stem/bars feel too high once on the back wheel. But i love the thing (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey1991 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Kona man forks, thats what they should be called, not all this pussy aluminium. I love it, almost all of it looks as new, £200? You robbed said seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes for 200 It's my mates dad who wanted to get into trials but then couldn't be bothered once built up, only had been ridden about four times before i got my hands on it. Frame, bb, cranks, stem and rear maggy are all new parts. Wheels have been well looked after. So that would be why it looks new (; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I love it! And im loving the rakeless forks. Bet it rides funny with them on lol. Why todays trials forks are not like this ill never know. Straight forks offer more positive/neutral control in the frontwheel for turning, pivotting, and greater stability for trackstand balance. Sweet rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because raked forks offer a long wheelbase with a shorter reach?Ssimilar to a slack headangle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siede. Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 woah, nice build... but, where do I get these forks?! Never seen them before (especially on a trials bike) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) woah, nice build... but, where do I get these forks?! Never seen them before (especially on a trials bike) Kona P2 forks...now discontinued I think. A quick google search may prove otherwise If they are as i suspect then Ebay or the wanted section here would be your best bet.

LEON Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 It's not the same actually, the 1 on your bike is the heavy duty one, the ordinary p2's are thinner & more spindly looking, with more rake too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
