Hey guys just outta curiosity, whos ordered from them and what do you think? i was thinking about buying a set of their forks, tall seat, etc. wanted to know all of your thoughts bfor i spend the money.

 

thought about buying a clamp...looks like some good deals...

 

the swing arm is garbage. some cats on PM have been ripping that stuff to shreads.

the dam swingarms come with chain adjusters made of wood.

 

Know anything about their Triple Clamps? Might pick 1 up, price seems decent for anodized(sp) Red or Black clamp.

 

nope, they look alright to me. ask the guys on PM, they are the only dumb asses i know of that bought that junk. go figure.

 

i was looking at the forks but like Brad has said i been reading some stuff about em. Mostly lurking other dirt boards but sounds like about a 50/50 on if they will hold up or not. Too bad, there needs to be another option in the $300 range..

 

Do not buy those forks...you will hate yourself and lose your $$$$$...You are better of with +1 fork legs delron bushings and hd springs

 

yea ive basically decided to just stay with the honda for now but if you think about it, its not a honda anymore. Im replacing everything on that bike except for the frame and hubs. and really, the hubs will be replaced soon too. Im buyin one of those zong shen motors so whats the diff from buyin an xr fiddy or buyin a knockoff if your replacing everything anyway?

 

+1 the guys over at PM hate on them hard so i dunno

 

may sound stupid here but ima go out on a limb...... What is PM? And NOOOO i dont mean private message.

damn hate myself?? lol thats pretty strong! any info on such strong feelings on them? You buy them and not like them already? Not planning on it really just an option i had looked at..

 

I wouldn't buy their stuff cause they ripped off bbr, ishock, and billetwares designs had them cloned in china. We all know that chinese clones have ever possible corner cut on them, and typically won't last. I was involved in every thread over on pm and richie(50caliber) dodged every question from every person, and he just wormed out, and dissapeared for a month, or so then returned as a paid advertiser, and was posting threads for sponsorship and it was like alot people forgot that he is a pos a person and pedals junk which he won't even hold himself accountable for by answering questions about his products he sells. That was it for me on pm I haven't been back since.

 

damn thanks for the info 50man!

I'm pretty sure I will be staying away from their parts. Just can't believe there isn't a halfway decent bolt on option in the $250-300 range for some damn forks!

 

yo heres is another ebay deal I was thinking of. Good price but is this a quality product? Damn I mean there has to be someone out there that is going to make a decent product and undersell the competitors.

:YEAH

 

dammmn! that even comes with bars, disc brakes, and a 12" front rim..

My sense is telling me too good to be true tho for that price! doesn't look bad, but on that token from the looks the 50caliber stuff didn't "look bad" either..

 

That is the front end off of a sikk mx mini.
I don't really know anything about it cause I don't own one, and I haven't heard anything about them either. However I do know that they are chinese, and one of my concerns with that is where can you get a new rotor, or brake pads, or new seals? The only thing in my opinion they have going for them is that Atom Rotten is selling sikk mx stuff, he is a promoter so I'm sure he doesn't want his name to be dainted by selling shitty parts, but then agian on the other hand, it has only been a couple of months since he left sik50's to go on his own, and maybe he'll drop sikk mx as his grows with more american made manufacturers in the near future. I can't find the pics in comp, but I know I saved it. I have a pic of a brand new sikk mx 110 with the protective plastic still on the seat, and the foot peg bar had snapped off. lol what does that tell you?

I have bought 2 sets of rims, and 2 sets of crf plastics from The ebay seller carolgoat, and all I can tell you guys is that you get what you pay for. Plain, and simple truth.

 

Well thanks again for the info you have given us! I know I appreciate it. Guess the hunt continues. I'v been hearing about XR70 forks fitting and being a pretty good option with only a little modification for a "better" setup but still not fantastic..

I'll keep looking..
