I'm thinking about trying out a rigid fork on my 24...

Thinking about getting the BlkMrkt fork, but what are some other options out there?

i see all these NS and DMR forks... anyway to get these in US and not from Europe?

the Identiti forks are very good also, the come in 20mm and qr/bolt on in 2 different lengths each. I think Quality carries them so most bike shops can order them. the BlkMkrt is a 26"fork so it may throw off the geometry of a 24". S&m makes a 24" but i believe it is a race fork.

Anson Wellington ride one of our short Tchoker fork on is BMW 24"
Those forks also works great on all dob's 24 or 26".
They are not the ligthess...3.3lbs...but you dont have to worry about it bending or braking.

yea, i rode ansons bike with the doberman fork, feels good. how much is one of those? they come in 20mm right?
Yes they come in 20mm.
And are available in 100's of colors.

IMO the best setup is 10mm..and using a BMX hub... but i will also go for a 20mm as my wheel is still good... and no need to spend $ on a new wheel if i dont have to. But if you want to run pegs...the 10mm would be your best best.

For the price, email me at dobmaster@dobermannbikes.com, tell me where you are located and i will be able to give you a quote.

Cheers!

I have a good year on my molly with a rigid DMR. Thousands of jumps with no problems at all.

If you have the money go with the tchoker but if you don't get the dmr. You should be able to get a dmr for 100 usd. The 10mm drop out version is 3.5 pounds. Definetly build up a BMX hub front wheel too.

S&M has there own 26in fork now too. I think its pretty similar to the blackmarket one, but I could be wrong. Any shop that does BTI should be able to get you the NS one if its in stock. If not, Chain Reaction Cycles online seems to be a good bet.
