Landing gear, is there a definitive way to id unstamped forks?

<< < (2/3) > >>

oberonspacefruit:
there is no 'fourth hole' on the dropouts - a small washer-tab retention hole next to the axle signifies a copy
it doesnt have this hole.
also there is no gas release hole, at least non visable, theyve been painted badly as has the frame, several times. should the gas holes be at the bottom of the legs on unstamped lg's?

apparently bmx museum says a continuous weld on the outside, and three on the inner? does that hold true for yours rich?

..wtf are gas holes for...? :laugh:

BMX1973:
Little holes normally at base of forks. Something to do with the manufactoring process. Most forks have them.  :)
