trialsiain Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 nice bike , why are you showing the black cranks but then using silver ones haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i like cunning stunts Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Looks really nice, forks look weird with that much space above the tyre. I agree they look much better on a 26 but the bike is properley nice. What are the differences in the forks compared to the tryalls? How long / thicks the insert etc? Weight / price?

ghostrider88 Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I agree they look much better on a 26 but the bike is properley nice. What are the differences in the forks compared to the tryalls? How long / thicks the insert etc? Weight / price? Insert should be 120mm long and price the same as try all forks, at least at tb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Insert should be 120mm long and price the same as try all forks, at least at tb Our pricing for the RockMan and Try-All forks is in line with everyone else?

Ah, I see - the "at least at tb ;)" made me think you were trying to suggest something else by it, as in we were charging that much but other places weren't. My mistake.

My mistake. Mine too, in that case ghostrider - just in case it was a genuine misunderstanding, putting a " " or " " at the end of a sentence usually gives the impression of a joke or sarcasm to an English reader. Is it different in Slovakia? BB looks suuuuuuuper high Joe - how high is it? f**king love the stealth-with-silver-highlights look. Only thing that surpasses matte black is matte carbon weave! Haha.

24martin Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 such a mint bike joe cant wait to see one of your new edits on it it would be pretty cool if you could write up a little review on those forks at some point as they do look quite interesting, will also be quite interesting to see how they hold up to your riding!! what are your overall first impressions of them, do they look and feel well made etc?.... i look forward to seeing how well they hold up after loads of hooks, gaps to front, front hops and big drops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
