to seb harris, they are almost identical to ultra pro forks, but the gussets on the legs on the mgp fork go farther down the legs, and the fork tube is much thicker.
to ashz, they are not crap forks, you must me just a really sketchy rider

really? cuz i ride pretty hard and there isnt even the slightest bit of damage to the fork, so you must be pretty sketchy

mike your ones are the newer ones, they will last. the reason the current stock forks bend is because the deck doesnt flex at all, so the stress has to go somewhere i.e the forks. the bars are heat treated 6061 alu so they are more than good enough if you arent sketch as fuck. The OLD brakes broke cause they were skinny at where the holes are, the newer ones(stock on all from now on) is much thicker. any more questions?

yeah the new deck has the reo'd piece. the new stock fork does not fit 110mm wheels. however, if you grind it down, it can fit 110mm wheels
It is the "signature series".
They are NOT the nitro. They are a mid range product by MaddGear (MGP being bottom of the range, and Nitro being top of the range).
They made it for people who dont want to spend as much as the nitro is, but want a better scooter then the normal MGP. Basically it is a Upgraded version of the normal MGP, where as the Nitro is a full different scooter, including;
Metal Cores
Threadless forks
Chromoly one-piece bars
whole different deck (including being forged in places)
ect etc and more!
So here are the details:
Bottom of the range scooter:
MGP
Details:
You guys already know
Mid Range:
MGP Sig Series
Details;
Pretty much, just a upgraded MGP.
One piece bars (not as good as the Nitros).
'Spoked" MaddGear Metal core wheels
Thats all we know ATM, but Mike will let us know more as it gets closer to the release date, im sure
Top of the range:
MGP Nitro
Details:
Threadless forks
Full MaddGear metal cores
Full heat treated Chromoly one piece bars
forged parts (instead of welding - Stronger)
reo'd brake
Thats all we know ATM, but Mike will let us know more as it gets closer to the release date, im sure
Hope that helps and clears things up

ALL of the second batch of maddgear are forged...

does the sig series have the same headtube angle as the original or did it go up 2 degrees up like the nitro?

none of the mgp scooters headtube angles have changed.
and swift, your not the only one, nickeh has done it too. my first reod brake warped one way but consider its just a brake so deal with it.

i never even broke my brake and i had it for a while
i think the main reason they snap is cause they hit the ground
