Nice forks Chester, did you make them??
They are actually sweet, :)
Uhm, these robo forks look zero offset or like 1mm offset, which would actually be sweet, :)

Ya if i made them myself I would ride them since that would be cheap/free forks, just they look too unprofessional to pay that much money for.

Ya i made them, the design is super easy, and they're strong, they would be stronger with ultra pro style gussets though
 
i imagine its TIG welded..... I wouldnt want to ride if it was MIG, that fork design and MIG welding would prolly be worse than stock!

Is it a big deal if its tig welded instead of mig? i have only mig welder

Depends on the material. If a part is made out of a heat treatable alloy, MIG welding is a horrible way to go. Metals like 4130, 6061, etc should always be TIG welded. TIG welding has much better control over the heat of a weld bead. Either way, the weld would be brittle and there would be a heat affected zone, but MIG is much, much worse. I got my 4130 Lucky fork in the mail which had been MIG welded; I was pissed, and I refuse to ride it. I don't want it to snap on me. This is a simplified explanation; research it on Google if you want more specific information.
