Lucky vs VertX SMX

[TSchneider]

I know that VertX used to manufacture for Lucky, but is there any difference between the Lucky SMX and the VertX SMX?

no ive had both i cant tell the diffence

Yes there is. Lucky you can only use a starnut and The only come in 10 mm off set. Vertx has a threaded insert that works like a starnut and way easier. they can be used with a starnut as well. They come in 10mm and zero off set. As in looks they are basically the same.

Also VertX is sooooooooooooooo much more legit and way better warranty than lucky. I think there forks are also a little bit stronger.

i loved my vertx forks soooooooo muchh

Vertx SMX forks aren't CNC'd wrong. If you notice on the Lucky, one side is CNC'd bigger than the other. Vertx SMX's are also better because they have an intergrated starnut, come in different colors, come in zero offset, and cheaper.
So yeah, Vertx is much better.

Alright thank you guys in helping me make an informed decision. The VertX seems a lot better (and cheaper) so I might be buying one in 0 offset soon.

Edit: Mods, you can lock now. I got the information I needed.

^^ only buy the zero offset if you do a lot of nose manual tricks. Unless you really like the feel of 0 offset.
