i think the evil imperial is allowed to support some small triple crown because of his strong neck and geometry ...but like every bike, a too long fork can reach a lateral breakpoint verry easily ...generally its the top tube where goes the headset that breaks into a single shot after a small jump ...i saw it happen too many times... and now i wonder how to recycle these forks,... im thinking about rebuild the toptube with thick steel ....many grams more but....probably undestroyable
yeah it can unless the frame is designed to handle any fork any length as evil did and it is covered by there warranty and people have used 300mm on them no problem
I have an Imp with a 888 as well. I don't worry about breaking the hanger. It's just a peice of flat iron cut in a funny shape. you could make your own with a file and a drill If you do end up breaking it.
That is so ugly.
