Date Reviewed: January 23, 2007 | | Favoriate Trail: | Craigiburn | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Strengths: | Short Stiff Fork great for park and versitle for DJ. | | Weaknesses: | Strength, Weight. I cracked my crown. No real big nose landing to flat, just the usual Skatepark hucking and Dirt jumping. A friend of mine has also broke his crown to face plant. A Serious weakness. | | Similar Products Used: | None, may try Rhox Shox Argile next | | Bike Setup: | P-Street, standard set up with narrowed bars 50/50 pedals running one peg for feebles. | | Bottom Line: | Great if you dont mind the weight. They will break if ridden and hucked around skateparks which is why you run them. Check your crown after every ride your head depends on it! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$450.00 | | Strengths: | The fork is extremely stiff and offers valuable rigidity to any street or dirt jump rider. It comes with adjustable air pressure. i like the fact that you can use v-brakes also. | | Weaknesses: | There were a few weaknesses that i found. one weakness was that i found that the fork bottomed easily on flat landings or big drops.this problem was fixed by the adjustable air pressure. Also a fork seal was blown. this may have been due to the bottoming or faulty manufacturing. plus the fork is extremely heavy | | Similar Products Used: | Dirt jumper 3, dirt jumper 2, rock shox physols | | Bike Setup: | specialized p street with removed gyro and only back brakes | | Bottom Line: | this is a good fork for anyone who wants to ride street and/or dirt jump. this fork isint for someone who wants to build a light weight weight street bike or just doesnt like a heavy front end. if your looking for a lighter fork willing to take jumping and street abuse get a manitou sherman jumper | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$750.00 | | Purchased At: | Pink Bike .com | | Strengths: | Bullet proof performance, forged lowers, peg compatible, 24"compatible. V-brake and disc compatible. | | Weaknesses: | The only thing I would say that acts against it is weight but if you are slamming it up against curbs while grinding a three foot ledge then you to drop of that to flat on 24" tires sacraficing weight for strength is a valid sacrifice. | | Similar Products Used: | dj 3 on my stinky. dj street is alot stiffer because of forged lowers and arch. | | Bike Setup: | p. street stock w/ avid v-brakes. | | Bottom Line: | If you are like me and you have aspire to ride Bmx but the knees cant handle cramming onto little 20" wheels this fork is a savior. It saves your wrists of drops and overshoots on dirt jumps as well as hoping on to curbs for grinds. I swear that I had a dream about a bike with the p. street characteristics and wished marzocchi made a fork peg compatible and next thing I know I look at these manufactures websites and find my dreams are answered. 24"'s rule the skatepark, urban assault, local dj trails. why not have a suspension fork save your wrists and provide some give when thrashing the streets. This fork rocks! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
