rickyb Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) i used to have the hydra shape of that bike with the seat(unless you chopped the seat) and althought they did look very skinny they are very strong and the one i had rode pefect and it was light and also it didnt have any majour problemsThey are not very strong at all just look at the drop outs looks like a big drop off and they will snap off, but it is a nice begginers bike and at the price you can't go wrong so good luck with it mate.ricky Edited April 20, 2006 by rickyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 yeah me too. Looks like one up to front and they'll have a rake of 90 degrees They're steel, so fairly strong. I've got them, and a set of onza steel forks, and i'd rather be running the monty's but the steerer is too short They are not very strong at all just look at the drop outs looks like a big drop off and they will snap off , but it is a nice begginers bike and at the price you can't go wrong so good luck with it mate.rickymm hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
' Mart ' Posted April 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) the forks are ultra strong the chain is brand new almost its not rusty at alli think its the light on it or somethingin reply it would of had a seat but the guy before me had it chopped off and covered itin a nasty carbon sticker after a monty seat pad soon though Edited April 20, 2006 by montyx-hydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
