This stuff seems light and cheap (yeah I know what KB said) has anyone tried it?

*bumps*

Anyone?

Got the integrated bars on both my MTB and road bike.
Seems very good, lasted well so far. Feels solid and pretty well made.
It’s light but not silly light (MTB bars is around 40-50g more than a Syntace F99 stem and Max-M MX1 bar)

Critisism? I can’t get lights or clip-on tri-bars onto my road one, usefull for 24hr TTs as a proper TT bike can get a bit uncomfy after that long!

I bought the forks they came yesterday i pikthem up from my parents tonight

For 110 quid i thought they are worth a try.

Brake mounts look a bit scary. Will gie more info once i have my mitts on them !

no spoons involved al …

brake mount looks fine in real life

thats a 29 x 2.25 ralph in there

not had a chance to ride them yet but finish looks good , length is right and you can get a 29/2.3 tire in there unlike the trigon ones i nearly bought !

feel alot more connected to the wheel than i did with the pace RC31s ie i turn and the wheel moves.

alot less braking flutter

the trade off is that you do feel more of the trail but the buzz still gets taken out. but its a rigid – if i want suspension ill fit suspension 😉

far superior workign and looking to the rc31s 😀

match the bike well at 450mm since ive tried everything from 425 – 490mm on the front while waiting for a set of unicrown carbon forks to appear…..

Hi Trail_rat, where did you get the forks from? Do they do a 420 ish?
I’d like to get a pair for my old Klein Pulse ’95, so would think an 80mm equivalent set up would be best.

450 only, from ebay.

look at trigon for shorter forks

mines were from a chap called ian on ebay. came quick – under a week

still playing with position hence hoses and spacer stack. still cant believe the difference over them rc31s.

looks like ill be riding it at 10 @ kirroughtree this weekend 😀

TR…is weight actually 500gm?

Was cutting steerer a b’stid?

Weight for fork as arrived 530 grams

Cut about 8cm off steerer using fine blade hacksaw – as with any carbon steerer

Then coated the cut end in superglue

Propper job !

I got mine recently. It’s lush – 550gm.

195gm 27.2 seatpost for £24 also. Bargin.

I think quality control is the main problem various threads on forums of varying wall thickness on seatposts and bars. Get a good one A-OK get a bad one….,,,
