[poll] Zero Offset or Normal Offset Forks (I'm making CNCed forks)

Original thread http://www.scooterresource.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?788339[link=hyperlink url][/link]
I might make some forks if i can get some material.
I need some 3mm and 8mm sheet and 35mm OD billets.
Anyone with idea's and links to get material will be appreciated!
The wheel represents a 110mm wheel.

Zero Offset:

Normal Offset:

(note that little bit on top of the front plate isn't part of the design)

Um french ids/Take two lights mix? haha

Make it 125mm compatible.

I like the first one.

Make it 125mm compatible.

I can but its not going to be worth it, i don't think i will sell to many.

 

[konowaluk]

yeah and 125s look stupid as hell to

Bump!
Does anyone know where i can get 6061-T6 Aluminium shipped to Aus in the USA?

go no offset for now because its stronger

Make it 125mm compatible.

Do it. Just make it so they're all 125 compatible, no one is gonna complain about a half inch gap between the top of the wheel and the fork.

Try to actually make it happen first, this is the second thread ive seen from you about making parts that are somewhat unrealistic.

But anyway good luck, I think make zero offset and definately 125mm compatible.

The bars were just an idea, the forks i have been working on for like a year and a half lol
I'm gonna make just a 110mm just for the prototype, if everything goes well then i might make a 125mm.
I should be made by the end of the easter holidays hopefully!
I just needed votes so i know what i should make

NORMAL OFFSET. Zero offset is dumb as hell. No need for it, just makes everything less stable at high speed. I'd make it out of chromoly, but machining chromoly billets would be extremely expensive, so just stick with aluminum and keep the walls thick.

i say steel and normal offset i think it looks pretty good chris ill buy some if they gonna be threadless normal offset and steel
