Ah c'mon, when you'll buy your bike, I'll give you respect. Can't figure a 12 years bitching people on forums and not even working to pay his bike. Don't fool me, first, it's illegal at your age. Second, the 20$ per week given by you parents will takes you years to buy a decent 3000 bike!
i work for my dad.... should i be arrestedCop

Reminds me to never go to your bike shop, else my bike will probably be wrenched with Imperial tools instead of metrics!

You'd probably get your bike back and it's a Huffy thats duct taped together because he stole the nice bike to do his 9 foot rock drop

wow this battle continues....... lmao.

eh, if you want a fork, then get it, they're right though you prolly. don't need a fox 40 or a boxxer, bet hey, half the people on Pb don't need a good fork cause they'll never reach the point where it's there equipment holding them back ( easyer to say " i need a new fork " than " wow I should really work hard at being a better biker " ) but if you can get a "good" fork, i'd do it... that being said I'd not reccomend the 40... mine sucked. but you'd have the ability to grow into your fork... get a 888 or a boxer, i can't say enough bad things regarding fox.

truthfully though, a smaller fork like a 66, would be easyer for you to toss around and be less work, and if you decided in the future that you wanted a doual crown then you could alway's sell the 40, ( or whatever ) and upgrade, when it's more suited to your weight and size.

hope this help's... Keep up the "Fight" with the other's ...it's quite entertaining.

i wouldnt say either is better than the other, its just the way you ride i guess and the way you want your bike to feel, the 40s are lighter and stiffer BUT more expensive, the boxxers on the other hand are a small bit heavier cheaper and have a bit of flex in them. on a limited budjet id go for the boxxers because theyre cheaper but if i had the money id buy the 40s

actually your dad's business can get a pretty serious fine. I would know my Dad's a small business owner and in order to i>legally/i> work for him I'd have to go to a state court room in front of a judge and plead my case about how I should be able to work for him and then I would have to ask my principle or other school authority if I could work

it's called "working under the table". his dad could just give him money himself and not pay with the shops money or he could and probably be fine. im sure that no one really cares what goes on as far as paying employees goes in bike shops
