dan the trials man Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 Hi allAfter snapping my chain just yesterday i have managed to snap my forks today, I think it was a mixture of the cheap heavy metal of the onza tuff guys and not using a brake booster . I have bought two brake boosters from tarty so this doesn't happen again now i need to buy some new forks, i don't care how much they are i want the best forks i can get. Can some one recommend what the best forks are.ThanksHappy new yearDan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 zoo forks are the best stock forks on the market in my opinion. they come in four bolt or disc options. really strong and super thick steerer tube for 07. it also happens to be the case im selling some four bolt only stock forks brand new un-touched at all. if your interested add me to msn please.ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 07 urbans 4TW im using them, and the mounts are on the back too!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan the trials man Posted January 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 I was looking at the controls, they are a very good price aswell they are a fare bit lighter then the zoo forks. Can any one that has zoo forks tell me what they think of them and any one that has echo controls tell me what they think of the controls?ThanksDanAlso is it better having the mounts on the back or the front, i think they look better on the front.

NirZionTrials Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 i dont recommand the ECHO 06 , if you can go for the 07 take them, both control and urban are good.they both have a thick steerer, thicker then 06.btw i have both Control and Urban... Control little felxy Urban stiff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan the trials man Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Have i got this wrong here , .........not having a booster snapped your forks .Yes it is a huge crack it not realy a snap but if i use them they will snap.I will get a picture if you want to see.ThanksDanAlso has any one got any pictures of the zoo forks on a bike? I have not seen a rear mounted brake before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Yes it is a huge crack it not realy a snap but if i use them they will snap.I will get a picture if you want to see.ThanksDanAlso has any one got any pictures of the zoo forks on a bike? I have not seen a rear mounted brake before.rear mounts on the 07's ? really ? I dont think so .... anyway - if you want some zoo urbans (06 used for 2 months) Ive got some in pretty tip top condition . but then they are disc only (afterthought) - bugger (got a 160 hope mono trials too ....teehee) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
