Hi

Does anyone know of a good integrated top crown & stem for the Fox 40? I'm about to go for the Hope one, but just wanted to see if there are any better ones out there

Cheers

Separates make more sense tbh, unless you're sure you'll never want to change the riding position or fork height or fit them to another bike... Hope's the only one I know of that you can buy on the open market, Mondraker do one but I don't think it's publically available.

Mind you I like how the Hopes look 😉

Okay they may look cool... But what if you ever want to change? Imo I don't really think they are really worth the money.

Thanks for the help,

The only reason to get one is to have the steering a bit sharper and stiffer, rather than for the look etc.

But I do take the point on the flexibility. Part of the problem is that my 40s are 2005 and therefore dont have a direct mount crown. However I've seen that Mojo sell one and it doesn't seem too expensive at £46. So perhaps that with a direct mount stem will be the way forward...
