[Bicyclist]

Love it.

 

[Mr Tiles]

wow, just wow.

 

[opjones]

Yeah boy

 

[v-digit]

what do i say?

tonic for president, thats right.

sharp business - i like.

that fork, as nice as it is, is somewhat of a beast compared to todays lighter dj/park forks. i weighted my sherman jumper modded the same way as yours - its 5.8lbs - wowwy. could shave over a lb if i was to switch to one of that fancy light marz. hmmm.

your right. for my next fork (whenever that is) i would like something with cleaner dropouts, maybe a tool-less removal or at least 1 bolt per leg. i never weighed my gl. are they the same weight as jumpers? i love the fork though, never adjust anything, just ride it

 

[v-digit]

i ALMOST think that a sherman jumper is lighter then GL, since it is/was a lil more expensive or what not. i must say i do love my fork too. simple and trustworthy.

 

[Leethal]

Very nice ride... I've often comtemplated going to a lighter fork over my Sherman Jumper but the fact is it has been trouble free and I haven't adjusted it---ever.

 

[ServeEm]

That fallguy looks tough as hell. I like

 

[snaky69]

Beautiful.

 

[grom-dom]

dang man that thing is sick. wish i had the $ to redo mine. satori will kill you for that front hub :biggrin:

 

[BikeSATORI]

most excellent steed.

Yeah, grom-dom is right, I'll tear down some walls for that hub! haha...

I've got that exact same tire combo and chain right now as well, and the 170mm Medials on my SplinterMX too.

Nice set-up for sure, you've got that taste for paste.

 

[ServeEm]

Satori, so when are you going to dawn the new steed?

 

[Landon]

Nice rig. Haven't seen one of those front tires, but it looks perfect.
