has anyone tried it on Mam Tor?
I'm interested coz when I do ride it's normally around Mam Tor and it could be my next bike pipedream.
on-one are knocking them out cheap atm..
Bloody hell, on one really are knocking them out cheap!! Just as well I wasnt planning on shifting mine!
Didn't STW review them a while back and say the head angle was waaay too steep (which looking a the pic above, I can believe). 140mm fork with the head angle of a superlight 80mm forked racer? No thanks!
That pic above just looks plain wrong with the headangle/fork travel.
nah! it looks good.
are the green wellies spd compatible?

Yes, and then I believe VN redesigned them in response. It could be the cheap ones around are the older models that had already been produced before the modifications. I would check the exact specs before buying.
Or I may have simply dreamed all that.

69.5 on On-One website. 68.5 on Van Nic website
Just a little curious about this, just checked the on one website and it is indeed 69.5, however this is the same as the Ti 456. How is the head angle on the Mamtor too steep but the 456 is fine? Both are designed around the same length forks...
I think the answer is that Brant quoted the 456 angle sagged with a not that long fork.
..or a lot of folk on the internet don't know what they're talking about?
