Tom Perkins Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 I would get Echo lites. There lite and strong. And cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrBENN Posted November 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 But the thing is about echo lites is that i dont like the reversed maggie mounts and i want something with mounts on the front and its got to be disk + hs3 so if my disk brakes i can switch and put my maggie on !

c.kezer Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 get some echo easys mine are mint chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 In theory, the 'reverse' mounts will be work better, as the force from the brake is going into the forks, not away.So it'll be stronger?Not all about looking good.. I've got some Echo Lite's on my Zona, and they're fine. Bearing in mind I don't do any taps and hooks, so I wouldn't be able to tell you that they're uber strong, not at my level of riding anyway.

Deonn h Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Ye get the echo lites with reverse mount the brake is amazing there stiff forks dont seem to be creaking or owt yet so id say get some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Reverse mount's look fantastic on mod's, just sound's terrible when using a front grind, really grabby, good comp brake, but with no modulation, that's whey I went disk.

mrBENN Posted November 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Cool but when i went on tarty and clicked on GU forks is says avalible in disk or four bolt for now?does anyone know if there bringing Gu forks out in disk + four bolt mounts becasue i have a disk but if it brakes and i want to put my maggie back on i wont be able to so i would like a fork with four bolt + disk if possible if anyone has any suggestions?

jim-p Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 i suggest that you should get the zoo python 07 forks because they are very strong because of the thick steerer tube also some of the top riders use them like craig lee scott.i also have a pair and they are very good.

luke_onza Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 i would say try the monty 221ti or 221pro forks, they are the same as what you want and the221pro forks are only £60 bargin . however if you have deep Pockets get koxx forks way nicer .luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeNNy Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 If you want strong forks get Zoooooo forks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopipe Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 get zoos- they'll make a man of you - just buy a disk if you haven't got one - it's only money ffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrBENN Posted November 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 As i keep sayin if my disk brakes i will have to change my forks ova to my old ones to run my maggie so i need a fork with both maggie and disk so if my disk goes wrong i can quickley zip my maggie back on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 (edited) get the 06 echo lites from tarty bikes i think that they are on offer and i don't think that they have the reversed maggie mounts.

Danny Kearns Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 The ko-bikes forks are brilliant, They are avaliable in black, silver and chrome, also they have your 4-bolt mounts and disc mount which you want.Jobs a gooden.Dan.
