Im not a fan of S&M but these are strong forks they are heat treated and not bad deal for the cost for them there also very light to but the best thing is that they are american made forks
The Bad:
Trading them for fit forks is a bad thing to do and also Bolt that comes with it is easy to strip out i had the right Allen key for it and it still stripped it also u cant put fat tires on them
Overall Review:
I recomend this to a friend and worth the price
One of the few USA Made forks
Rating:
The Good:
Made in the USA, Not to tapered, look good, reasonable weight, Great warranty
The Bad:
33mm offset (Not my style of Riding), Dropout Bent from heavy peg use
Overall Review:
i would say these forks would be better for pegless street riders or park/trail riders. I Bent my dropout pretty bad after about 8-10 months of heavy peg use. The plus side is they took care of the fork and sent me a new one. I love that there made in the USA, if you like pegs i would recommend the S&M Fastpitch's.
Felt so light after running stock kink forks, look sickk
The Bad:
Snapped my drop out about 9 months after purchase, i looked after them and wasn't even doing anything stupid when it snapped, not even peg side haha
Overall Review:
alright forks if you can live off warranty...
GOOD FORKS
Rating:
The Good:
it is a great fork
really light
the dropouts look awesome
they have nice decals
The Bad:
they cost a lot
if you grind, you will surely damage or sketch the lower part of the fork
sometimes the compression bolt caused me some problems
it's design is basic, not as shadow or eclat forks for ex
Overall Review:
i ride them for about a year. they didn't cause me problems yet. they are solid but overpriced. i sometimes had problems with the compression bolt
ABSOLUTE SHIT
Rating:
The Good:
hold up for about a year
The Bad:
ive snapped two of these in the last two years, the first time only one dropout came out and the second time they both did. what happened to half way decent forks?
Overall Review:
they are good for about a year. not worth the price. better forks around
