trialsiain Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Anyone used the neon training forks in 24" ? do they feel stiff ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradJohnson Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I ran them, the brake mounts where stiff due to the little integrated booster. And the legs had just enough flex to help with hooks and switches! I loved mine, and they looked cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradJohnson Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 what do you mean had flex isnt any flex at all a bad thing No. Forks that are really stiff usually crack/snap due to the stress put on them, the tiny bit of flex sort or soaks up the impact.

Greetings Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 You need some flex in my opinion. It makes preserving momentum easier and thus benefits your riding. Obviously the bigger you go, the more they are going to flex. But I'd say Neons are stiff enough for most. They're pretty solid forks, would definitely recommend them.

trialsiain Posted March 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 ok thanks, what do you think about the different sizes ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradJohnson Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 ok thanks, what do you think about the different sizes ^^ The difference is obviously going to me substantial your running stock forks. You may feel a slight difference in BB rise but nothing major. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
