Liltony is right though when the kid came on here he said the machine he bought to make them was $25,000 and that's why the fork costs so much and now he says he pays to have them made. Liar.

im probably not going to make threadless. thr=eres no need to. you just dont half to use a nut. and you can use brass knuckles on my fork (99.99% shure). why does any of this matter! the price is going to drop like crazy. there going to ben one of the cheapet forks on the market! there also going to be the strongest! if they were being made any cheaper than i would sell them for cheaper. i havent sold that many. and a guy makes them by cnc (sorry for teh by hand i got confused) that is how much my dad is paying the guy. i am not a liar!!! and deven has not brok the forks, just tthe axle, i have broke one too. where getting new axles. and ya, anyione can strip the threads, its easy. anyway i am probably going to keep making threaded just for grip and make an inside hole on every fork and make it threaded. for the brass knuckles compression i think.if i was making them any cheaper i would defenetly sell them cheaper!!!!!!!!

first bold, no. brass knuckles wont work on them. you cant use brass knuckles with threaded forks, itll ruin the clamp.
send bold, probably not true. especially if they are threaded.
third bold, ya i bet.

take2 just do some threadless versions.
Brass knuckles would work on it but all it will do is wreck the clamp with the thread on there eventually .
if not drill the forks out enough so u can put in inward comp system at the least b/c aluminium isn the best material for thread just too soft.
and scooters only please get some cnc forks underway soon as u can.
evry1 in aus will love ya for it =D

too much, and thanks rick. i agree, but now were making the compression system with them so u can still have threads just dont use a nut.

WTF why would u make it treaded yet a compression system for it, just use the single lock nut & save your money on not paying for compression on a system which its NOT NEEDED FOR

threads are like .5 cents to make. soo cheap.

It doesn't matter, the threads do not provide any more grip, there is less surface area touching when it's threaded.
If you're making compression, do not make threaded forks. for any reason at all.
