Re: New guy Few pics

Ok makes sense but are they stiffer? What's better about them?

Re: New guy Few pics

Don't worry about forks really, unless your rolling 100+ foot endo's, then think about them in my opinion.

Most people get them for the looks. A properly setup standard set of forks for your weight, will blow away a bolted on improperly setup set of USD forks

Of course, a properly setup set of USD forks could be better, but most people spend hundreds of dollars on USD forks, then wont even have them valved and sprung for their weight!

USD forks generally have thicker tubes so there is less flex, which leads to more feel and more stability. Also they have less moving sprung mass, since the lighter part of the fork is moving, and the heavier part is bolted to the bike.
They make a big difference for racing, and I'm assuming for stoppies, but imo really isn't that needed until you are rolling far..
You'd be better off spending your money having your bike sprung and valved for your weight by a good suspension shop, that would make a world of difference
