jay119 Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 I got some new forks the other day, DMR Trailblade 2's, and at the moment I'm running dual disc HFX-9's. Problem is I run an 8" rotor up front and while this was fine on Dirt Jam's, I think it might exert too much pressure on the forks which, being rigid, may not be able to cope with it. What do you guys reckon, anyone run a rigid with a big rotor before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat hudson Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 in general, ridgid forks are stronger than their single crown suspended counterparts. it'll be fine, i'm running an 8" on my kot forks and its fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
