Can all the scooter companies who make threadless forks make the equivalent in threaded? becuase some of us dont have the money to buy threadless forks and a compression kit.

Id rather just have a good choice of threaded forks with a thick forktube and thick fork legs,,
instead of snapping or bending pro forks every month
Do you agree

Usually threaded a threaded fork costs more than a threadless fork ie the lucky nork. But yeah it could be an idea.

You can't just manufacture something for a niche since almost everybody is riding threadless today.

All, or most companies choose threadless over threaded, as the majority of riders already run/want to run threadless. They will make more money if they market toward the more popular side.

Hey mat. You have DSA/Lucky/Inward still making threaded forks and that is still too many companies. Why should companies choose to make a weaker object for a small group of people who refuse to move along with the times.

I used to think thick threaded forks would be a good idea too but an equal sized thread-less tube is stronger than an equivalent sized threaded one.

be happy you have those aforementioned companies still in the dark past of threaded.

edit: HIC viper bars + threadless striker fork = cheap and threadless. Bam.

I will never recommend any alu fork aside from Phorx.

And not many people have Viper bars either.

SZ/Phoenix/Proto are companies I support majorly
