Society Xenos I've tried have been pretty good. You must have got a dodgy one. :/ Nice bike bro. Nice colourscheme too! (pretty much the exact same as mine).
Cool. I love the feel of rigid forks, but I hate twatting my wrists. ABS+ is the best feature of the circus IMO. Allows you to run the fork fully locked out, but if you f*ck up there is a blowout and it will move, and then go back to rigid again.
that sounds pretty sick ! im just going to get ridgids as i am used to a bmx already anyway, and dont want to spend out more money than i have already on forks
yeah, think im just going to get the identiti rebate 1420, so i dont have to buy a new hub or anything, cos i havnt had my bike long at all, and then if i ever want to go back to suspension, i can get 20mm forks again, so its a winner all round im not bothered about weight really, i just want my bike to be even all round with rebate forks, my forks would be going from 2700grams, to around 1500 grams anyway, so its a lot of weight lost anyway : )
true, the society forks are weighing down the front end quite a bit too, i can feel the front end dropping when im doing stuff, so ridgids would make the bike more easy for doing tricks and stuff and would make a major difference, maybe id have to lighten the back end too, maybe a tioga powerblock and a lighter innertube or something
probably just a powerblock for me, cos i mostly ride street anyway and any tube can be lighter than mine cos i got downhill tubes front and back at moment haha :') and i wouldnt change the front tyre, these dmr tyres are proper good thanks for the advice though man = ]
thanks man & haha i knew i would get this question, i was trying out brakeless for a few days as my disk was bent to hell somehow, so i left the flange there as i knew id put the brake back on and ive put on my other disk now, so the flange is back by the lever where it belongs
i do like brakeless, its just i go down a massive hill most days to ride in the town centre, so it wrecks my shoes so quickly, and most of the people around here have terrible driving, so a brake is the best option for me haha
yeah there awful, not even had them long either, going to contact where i got them from as they are not right, they squeak, make clicking noises and dont come back up well, going to try get some ridgids instead of these
yours look like the model up from mine man , mine were the cheapest ones haha and yeh i like your ridgids, but if i send these back and they ask if i want anything different ill get some brand new ones (same ones as yours), cos these were a early birthday present anyway, so they have been paid for by parents and that
same man, these forks are making me even more annoyed every time i ride my bike ! proper want to get rebates, just want my bike to be ridgid so i can ride street better just like a big bmx
they do make the bike feel like a bmx, and get it really low, if you like you bar height now, you might wanna get bigger bars with the rebates, and add a bit of spacers
