I did a review in the your review thread.....
Phoenix Phorx reveiw:
The good- It's super light And very strong. Made of TT06 heat treated aluminium.
- Comes with a built in starnut, so it's really easy to use with an scs.
- Only seen about 1or2 broken.
- with it being laser etched and anodised makes it look really nice.
- comes with a proper bolt, not a standard hollow axel.
- The offset feels just right, and the fork legs are and feel very sturdy and reliable when you are riding it.
- fits Madd gear deck perfectly with out modding because the fork tube is a bit shorter than usual, but also fits any other deck aswell.
- Great for footjams, especially with an MGP deck.
- It has no welds so no weak points, all beatifuly CNC machined, and it also comes in 5 sick different colours: Silver, Black, Red, Blue and purple, also a very nice looking laser etched phoenix logo on the side of the fork.
The bad [ hardly anything ]
- You can't use it with ICS compression because of the built in starnut, you can only use with SCS or HIC, with ics there are mods ot make it compatible. [search]
- Putting on the crown race is pretty hard, but that makes the fork better in the long run i guess and more solid also you have to do this with any aftermarket fork
.
- You have to stretch your scs to get it over the fork tube, but thats no big deal and there are lots of tutorials on how to do this on youtube very simple.
- Pretty expensive $89.99 or £79.99 but it's deffinately worth it for the amazing quality of what you are getting.
Overall an exceptionaly good fork, extremely light and good looking, and when you put your wheel in it, its really tight fitting and will never come loose.Makes any other forks look abit out of date with all the technology used especially witht the built in starnut. And works with a proto SCS and any HIC but not ICS [ unless modified ], And if you look, all of the cons are small little issues that didnt affect me in anyway at all, and probably wont to you either so go and buy this amazing fork now from titetoyz in US or skatehut in UK. Stertching your SCS does not in anyway damage it atall, you are meant to stretch it to fit any aftermarket fork.
10/10 **********
AMAZING

yes you can. you could take an ics and run it with scs and use a nylock bolt to compress it and it will work just as well.

I don't trust welded forks. phorx are so amazing, two of my friends have them and love the balls out of them. I'm getting them real soon as well

welding strengthens the fork? its makes the fork weaker to build it without welds.

cnc doesent require welding elminating weak spot where wleding makes stress points
