SR Threadless Forks

[Eric Magray]

i need a new fork baaad
idk has anyone else ever broken a fork like this???

see kids thats what happens when you ride your headset even a little loose

Alright, I'll still get the forks even if they're more, because it's a good investment fo sho, especially for no more broken forks (hopefully).

samey samey

andrew, if you can get the forks powdercoated would it affect the cost and what colors would be available?

and is there any offset on the forks like the stock ones?

 

[DaNnYc]

eric ive broken forks like that before its the worst lol

I can get any color powder coat but I was considering white, charcoal and sky blue, however, that will make them more expensive so I don't know if I'm going to do that right now.

What kind of "offset" are you talking about? Like the axle being slightly forward on the forks? If so, yes.

 

[Eric Magray]

yes that was the offset i was talking about and i am glad there is one, i cant wait for those forks!

YES! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was wondering if the fork is really attached that way, so if I find a way of separating the legs and the tube I can have a custom tube welded to the legs which would be AS LONG AS I WANT => ONE PIECE FORK-BAR!

 

[Eric Magray]

i thought of that before too, but how would you take it off if the bars are connected, or would you make the bars come off the long steer tube?

 

[Pete Pachota]

I was thinking of setting up the bar the same way as the v2 Rads but with a screw tightening the handle instead of welding it (with some little aluminium thingy which would tighten it so it would be 100% tight - just made this up a few minutes ago, it will be a perfect setup).

Are those threadless forks made the same way as the stock ones? (a tube welded to the module with the fork legs?)

 

[the_SD_local]

Yes, but they are welded all the way around, not just tacked in a 2 spots.

 

[Eric Magray]

sounds like a good idea - real sturdy and never bend

 

[briflip]

wtf is it


sorry im kinda new to a threadless forks

 

[Steezeman]

Here's the deal Nick, you know how normal forks have threads on the steer tube? And you have to screw on two big nuts to tighten down the headset? Well these forks don't have those threads, which is why they're called threadless.

 

[Jordan Jasa]

saves you a buttload of time too.

i have the welding breaks

 

[jerms747]

u gota buy the compression system 4 the fork so the headset stays on ?

 

[Eric Magray]

you should but andrew says that the only other way is to try and do it without it but it would never be all the way tight

 

[scooterphil]

I cant believe that some People dicide to moan about weight..Honestly how much heavier can it be..as scooters weigh like 6 grams as it is, as Andrew says, Man up!

after i got used to SS bars, i could never go back to those razor thin peices of crap!

These forks will be sweet!


Edit: im hoping these can be shiped to Aus?

 

[Kano]

I agree they sould be awesome
