You must be the only one, all 4 of my mates that bought them have bent theirs. I've seen millions of pictures of bent ones on the internet too.

Avoid.

yeah i know that was a problem with the earlier traiblades but the newer ones are alot stronger.
well they've done me fine anyway
but yeah rebates are sposed to be good aswell and are cheaper so id go with them.

From what i've seen/heard/riden
DMR Trailblades = Bend
Identiti Rebates = the goods
NS RNS = the goods
Blk Mrkt Contraband = the goods

rebates are the best out ive ridden theyre tough as f*ck, really short and the 1420 system is the best out.
older dmrs bent like chese, i havnt seen first hand anyone brake or bend the new ones but theyre definately not a tough as rebates.

i'm riding a funn stiffy... it is slightly heavy, but bomb-proof... plus with the 20mil thru axle it is extra stiff

my surly instigator has held up well for me, but it might be a little tall for straight dirt jumping.

All my mates were running the new Trailblades.

How long are the NS RNS forks compared to the Blk Mrkt Contrabands, i'm looking at switching mine over on my NS Holy over the winter. I want something shorter, I already know the weights just I want the clearance over my tire reduced.

Ide say the NS RNS just because i've been learning 3's and lots of stuff that should demolish my forks yet they hold up. My buddy rides a Identiti and he likes it so ide say either or.
