Worth a try or weird mistake?
Tempted for my Fargo to ease wrist wear on washboard and rockier stuff.
Some people seem to enjoy slagging them off because they look strange.
I think they would be great for taking the edge off things on big days out.
Rob Colliver is using a set on the TD,will be interesting to read what he thought about them on a big trip. I have said on other threads,that with a lot of folk wanting a light option on rigid bikes,something like the Headshok could get a rebirth.[url=

Josh Kato was using a set on his bike on the Tour Divide this year in place of standard suspension, reckoned they were ideal for that terrain: basically zero maintenance worries but enough to take the sting out of washboard, etc.
Only seen one set "in the wild". At £650+ they aren't exactly cheap!
Much as I thought. Might give them a try.
They're broadly the same price as a Salsa Firestarter fork...
I have them on my fatbikes. I'm a fan. They work really well as others say, to take the sting out when the hits come too fast for arms to cope.
Just enough travel, doesn't interfere with the HA much, which I like on steep stuff.
