I am asking this question for my bro. What is the biggest fork you can put on this bike without the warrantee beign void?

 

[J5isalive]

why... its a DJ frame....why u want somthing big?

 

[J5isalive]

lol

 

[hardway]

yea, you don't want a long travel fork on the stp.

 

[CountryBoy]

the reason why he wants to know is because he doesnt really do too much dirtjumping so he wants to know what fork length he can put on

 

[f0ggy]

tell him the maximum length that he should put on an stp is 130, if he wants a fr hardtail tell him to get an imperial. or better yet a full suspension bike

 

[CountryBoy]

what about 135 because he was looking at a fork with 135 but i dont know wat fork it was

 

[CountryBoy]

i asked him and he said he was looking at the rockshox revelation or tora he wants a softer fork

lol

HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHA

Why an STP? There are beefier frames out there designed around such forks.

 

[ontario_bike]

maybe he got a sweet deal ...

 

[CountryBoy]

well he doesnt want to buy a new bike he wants to keep his stp but put a bigger fork on it like 130 or some wheres around there so he is wondering wat fork to put on

 

[BikeSATORI]

it's odd how you ask about the "biggest fork" you can put on an stp... then you say he wants a "softer fork" like the revelation or tora.... those last two I would not consider "big" forks.
What is on there now?

and also curious, what is the main use your brother wants to get out of the STP?

as for voiding the warranty, talk to your lbs.

 

[CountryBoy]

well he isnt really djing on it so he wants a longer softer fork he is just messing aroung like doing 4 foot drops and jumping some but he is wondering wat fork to put on it

 

[CountryBoy]

o he has dj 3s on right now

 

[BikeSATORI]

well he isnt really djing on it so he wants a longer softer fork he is just messing aroung like doing 4 foot drops and jumping some but he is wondering wat fork to put on it

well, the stp isn't a "drop" or huck bike. putting a tora or revelation on there won't help it for this purpose either, just keep the DJ3's.

 

[CountryBoy]

i wouldnt consider those forks big either but he just wants more travel than 100mm

 

[CountryBoy]

all right ill tell him yea the forks he has on are good enough

 

[Fox787]

you mean fork right theres only one fork on a bike so you mean he added an extra head tube put on another dj3 and has 2 front wheels?

 

[CountryBoy]

what r u talking about?
