how did i miss this thread. do you want me to pwn take two forks with science??? i havent rided them. but i KNOW in scientific fact that SR v2.3 and V3 are wayyyy stronger then these forks. [take2] there good for the average rider. but for the pro's.... not so much. most of you scoot ppl. dont break sr forks. most of you cant break them or take2, or inward. but frID mabe... way to thin. but idk i havent gotten mine yet.

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.

agreed.

Im not one for a solid peice of material though, its just more material that the fork doesnt need and the rider ends up having to pay for.

other than that, i must say they look good, and will look even better if you annodize them in different colors =)

For some reason i keep thinking there going to snap like a razor pro deck!
I say new design, make them welded, (which should make them) lighter and cheaper.

well all you people that have one. once you tighten the clamp and ride it a while you will never be able toe take off your fork. ever. because the threads will be flat so you cant unscrew the bolt. sorry but LOL. you were warned

My bars were hard to get off, but the threads were still perfect.
Anyhow, I'm selling my F1's soon, getting Inwards.
Look in the sell your stuff section later this week if you wanna try Take2s but don't wanna pay 110.
