aaron new zealand Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 How reliable are these forks. Ive just read through search function they initially had problems with length and with bonded steerer failure but heard that they were addressing these problems. Please help as have just ordered a pair !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtrials Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 As fare as i know viz parts are alot stronger and nicer than they use to be so no doubt they will be nice and strong. Not too sure about the length though suppose it depends on headtube length and what headset you have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 I'm running a pair and the steerer is more than long enough for my Echo lite frame. Strength wise i couldn't say that would be any use as the trial's bike doesn't get ridden all that much.The steerer is once piece now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron new zealand Posted September 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Thanks. Got a bit worried about the idea of bonded stearer for a bit there. Any idea of their weight and if the bit extra is noticable ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 i herd that the problems were related to the stock forks and that the mod ones were fine,they seem to be good from the reserch, in the forum. also it would be good if someone could find out the wieght of the forks, as i was thinking of perchasing some, i emagen that they must be 800g-1000g? "I'd personally rather get the straight ones and there £50 cheap as chips" there ruff urr echo lites? mabee, beter choise.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
