Crikey!

GNAR-core!

LOL at people who cant spot a 1.5" headset when they see one.

CK's 1.5" design's the same as the 1.125".
lol at those who don't know that 🙄

Nice, I reckon £950+

BOS n'dee everytime at that kind of price

^not really n'dee are not travel adjustable which is the hugh benefit of these fox's. It means you can basically use them on a light DH rig and use that same rig as an all mountain beast.

depends if you want performance or compromise that with adjustability really.

I know which I'd rather have.

"all mountain beast" is 180mm travel forks now is it?
Show me some "all mountain" riding in this country that requires 180mm travel…..and I'll show you a 140mm zesty that can spank that terrain easily….

LOL at the fan-boy notion that someone's fitting of a certain headset to a set of forks means anything about that headset's durability.

Really TLR, you make it too easy…

dasnut – and I'll show you a chameleon with 125mm forx that can pi$$ all over that terrain too!

bet its all been ridden on a muddy fox courier in the past

My chameleon only has 100mm fox forks, and no gears

I'll put my (tiny) willy away now it's been waved, thanks

(singlespeed chalemeons do rock though)

Linky no worky for me.

nor me, can find any other pics on net either!!

I think Fox keep pulling threads like these.

As for Chris King, I guess a 1.5" steerer is not going to flex so much so the headset is less likely to rip into the steerer. Anyone who hasn't had these issues with long travel 1.1/8" steerer forks clearly isn't riding hard enough 😉

Morning (wood) William.

mehh, I had the same issue with manitou forks and a Cane Creek headset, maybe I'm just more ganr core than you?

Morning Scruff.

LOL Manitou forks.

nbt – mines actually at 100mm too. gears for me though,

Lovely, but who needs 180mm forks in the south of England?

If they are priced at less than a grand, I'll eat my Pikes.

Nobody ride mountain bikes north of Watford shocker!!!

Stick a pair on a 456 ss…! It would have the turning circle of a barge. 😯

Sorry there seems to ba an echo in here.

There are more mountains north (and west) of the Watford Gap than where I'm currently sat 🙁
