Wlep, I want a set of triple tree forks for my bike so I can play with the stance of the bike. The best deal I could find is on bike berry. Anyone have experience with these specific forks, or even just similar ones? I plan to order the black ones.

You want some kind of suspension. Something is going to give over bumps and it shouldnt be solid forks' or frame's structure. I have a micargi stretch something or other with solid triple trees that went up or down a curb at stupid low speeds and bent the forks. I've been running the forks that came with the F-Zero for several thousand miles now and don't have any complaints other than it sucks for a suspension fork. I've hit stuff in the dark that sent me airborne going 40+ a few times and they still ride straight and feel ok. I've been interested in the Zoom Downhill Forks off Amazon but have not bought them yet because my TIG welder is DC only and I have a headlight and dual front brakes that I would like to keep. The Zoom forks are super tall and adjustable so you can play with your stance. The forks I am running are not adjustable height.

Thanks for the suggestion! I like those, but they'll have to wait a little while, they're a little out of the current budget. Thanks again!
 
I ordered these a while back and have them installed on an unfinished build. They seem very solid and look good.

Well, let's get that bike finished, it's been more than an afternoon.

Not a bad price for a suspension fork, that includes the sunrise tax, but not pst/gst.

Ya, talk is cheap. We do have a long cold winter coming up, so there is hope.
Personal bikes take a little longer. I'd be still building my 4X bike if I didn't want to ride it so bad. It was the only bike I had at the time too.
 
I did go for a rip on my 27.5 bike yesterday. What fun!
I don't think these things are ever finished, I would like to change the riding position from MTN to cruiser.
