no god damn cheep bastard. free. he isnt going to spend 125 on something he might break in a day. he is doing you a favor by actually giving it a legit test and not some "i d1D @ fL@t wH1P && d3Y r0cX!"

Overall, these forks are just insane, and I would definitely recommend them if you have the money.

I think the answer to the question is no for most ppl.
But I do know that the cost of machining is high when i got a quote for my fork design.

These are really nice looking, i haven't seen AJ's in person yet but i'm sure they're sexy.

your not serious are you? Even if murphy would pay for them, that is stupid money for a scooter part sent to the same country you live in. Now i see why no one has these forks.

also his second name is murphy not murohy.

 

[Humma]

Oh sorry, i thought you meant solid as in thick and strong etc, my bad :/

 

[mat]

but im sure he himself has spelled it like that at one time or another...

125 is a ridiculous amount of money to pay for a fork. thats why nobody has them. the design is decent, but not great. there are a bunch of pretty simple and obvious improvements that could be made. so yeah.

Only 1/3 weaker than chromoly, but HALF the weight.
Think about it.
With all the extra material, it's just as strong or stronger than any chromoly or steel forks, but still way lighter.

Some people say that aluminum threads will bend when you tighten your clamp.
Wrong.
The threads are kind of low profile, which makes it harder for them to bend.

Both of those statements are grossly inaccurate. Just because aluminum is lightly per cubic inch does not mean that forks made out of aluminum will be lighter because everything needs to be twice as thick. I would be willing to bet that those weigh just as much, if not more than SR forks if you actually put them on a gram scale. French ID forks and Razor Pro Model forks are practically the same weight and they are two different materials.

As for "low profile" threads... there is no such thing. All thread pitches and and counts are standardized which means the threads are exactly the same as on a Pro Model fork... only made out of aluminum.

I personally think the forks are a good design except for the aluminum threads but you should really get your facts straight before posting that stuff.

my forks are lighter than sr's, inward, but its heveir than frnech id, but way, way ,way stronger!!!

How many grams do they weigh? Pics on a scale.

ill give murohy some, for $125 shipped

and id give u a fattttt ------------ to suck. honestly testing is different then buying the product if u want a full test of the product it should been given to the rider and in return you find out wat needs to be done to make your product stronger,lighter, better. i am the PROTO test dummy. id like to test eagles and compare them to protos but the guy seems to be cheap ass like you for testing their products. same as French id yohan not letting me test alex's fork but his forks are said to be the strongest fork ever made.

I will give you a fat cock to suck. Honestly testing is differnt then buying a product if you want a full test of the product it should been given to the rider and in return you find out what needs to be done to make your product stronger, lighter, better.

I translated it from Murphy to English
I have learnt to understand the language of Murphy
