The crash I had might have bent a set of motorbike forks, going to fast for the conditions. I am honest enough to say it was my fault and have listened to the arguments for and against specific forks, but I dont think there is a winner. But what do I know lol. ?

Ha ha yes tell me it's ok to save about £400 odd quid on a pair of 36 non e-bike specific forks. The pair I twisted were specific forks, but damaged due to my crash and stupidity at the end of a ride . I have seen the damage on post #65 as well, but there must be a case for using non specific...

There seems to be a lot of e-bikes out there that have got forks that are not e-bike specific. They seem to manage ok dont they ?

What are they, I have recently destroyed a pair of 36 fox ebike performance

Cheers I am after a set of forks, I m searching the net for a bargain

Very nice, are the forks ebike factory ?

Well that's given me something to think about jamsxr. More sleepless nights cheers ?

That's nasty. If it wasnt damage from a crash, could he claim on warranty ?...... oh and the important question, Are they Ebike Optimized forks ?

Wow that was thorough, Cheers guys for all the feedback. I am still looking for forks, not sure what to get yet but after looking around only fox make specific ebike forks. If I can save a couple of hundred quid buying non ebike good forks I think I will. Thanks all.

I cant work it out either. I am thinking of making a pair out of some old scaffold pipe.

I am looking to replace the twisted forks on my Trek powerfly fs9, is there much difference between ebike optimized fox 36 forks and a set that isnt ebike opt ? Also has anyone just replaced bent lowers ?

Tredz have been allowing you to take 1 for the day for a test.

Just noticed a nasty dent in the rim of my rear wheel, any ideas if it can be saved. The wheel is a Bontrager Powerline 40, tubeless. Cheers all.

I have a 17.5 LT9fs 2018 I find the reach on it a little cramped so playing about with the cockpit. I am 5' 8 ish, So I wouldn't think 17.5 is for you. The frame geometry can be downloaded online.

I pass your ship most days, it could do with a lick of paint lol. Hope to see you up around the trails in Afan

Hope its sorted, what bike are you riding ?

I had to tighten the rear cassette up on my 2018

Get up the Afan Valley and it's free.

Just had same probs with 4th & 5th gear using sram ex1, Bike is 3 weeks old and done 150 miles around the mountain. Really bad creaking sound when climbing using 4th & 5th gear. Removed the cassette which was not torqued up enough, cleaned, greased and put back. It sounds like a swiss watch now...
