SR fork v-2?

[jerms747]

are you already making another fork. if so what are the changes

 

[jeff26]

he is making a new fork and its coming out about the same time the buffs come out. i heard it has a longer steerer tube. im not sure what else is different.

 

[loganhoe]

Why a longer ssteer tube?! well wait..yeah it would help, but the bracket across the bottom..or dropout on the fork will be beefier, since that is like the only damn flaw in the whole fork haha

The steering column will be about 1 inch taller for deeper insertion into the bars and better clamping.

The steering column tubing will also be thicker to prevent bending like some people have experienced.

 

[Derek Scootz]

same price range?

 

[the_SD_local]

Yep, same everything.

Both points exactly what i wanted it to be. Then the steerer tube would be possilby as strong as my half-custom threadless fork's tube i made for emergency. It has chromoly tubing, SR has mild steel right?

I thought the change was to fit 125mm wheels to the SR forks. Because a longer tube would make the spot where you put the wheel go down so that you could fit bigger wheels

Only the steerer tube is longer, not the little side pipes.

 

[ojfross]

[Andy Rhode]

Yep, same everything.

 

[jeff26]

now with the improvements i bet V-2s will be close to unbreakable

 

[jakob-b]

[gorrilaman]

Umm , i'm sure it would be really awesome. Nice one Andrew.

 

[Derek Scootz]
