i am looking at some forks for dirt jumping and the vanillas seem pretty nice and if i am not mistaken they weigh almost a kilo lighter than the marzocchi dirt jump 1s. but im not sure weither or not they would last. i really want to hear what people have say about them.
cheers
hey i have some and they are awesome....they are the lightest 130mm forks out there(i think they are 125mm). they probably would last except they are in quick realese and in the long term they will probably snap a few axles...
i have them and they are great but i am considering 20mm forks now.
cheers

good if you are smooth, id get the 80mm ones as they would be stronger than the 130s...
with a bolt up bmx front hub laced to a 36 spoke rim, your looking at a damn light front end, which would be reasonably strong as well...
but if you dont mind the odd case out, then go something 20mm
