Another Fork Update. Riding.

Post by jafo »

Well, I sent the forks through another test Yesterday. I took it out on the track. Done pretty well for the setup. But the real test was the trails. There was'nt alot of them but they did get alittle technical. It was just a big hare scramble loop basically. One portion had a fallen tree about 2 and a half foot high. It took the log pretty well. I lost the bike one time over the log out of 4 to 5 crossings. They still preformed better over the log then the stock forks have. I've crossed bigger logs with the old forks with more trouble. These kind of spring you over but you have to keep your mommentum. The forks also perfomed good on the tight trails. Did very well and the front only washed out once and that was my fault.

Not yet but it's going to be next. Emigs has his own stabilizer. I think I'm going to try his out. My buddy and I were discussing those on the way out yesterday.
