Thanks Chris. I presume Americans would pronounce the bo as in bo selector, whereas the brits would say bo as in bottle?

Yep, I had a prototype set with my prototype anniversary Gen1 I bought off Dom. Really wanted to keep the forks but they went with the frame.

I then had a set of newschool ones made by Greg Melms with my race Knightgoose when it arrived...... man they were seriously awesome but I sold them to pay for the Odyssey Directors I needed for it :'(

They also seem to be the fork of choice for the average Nomura builder too... Do a quick Google images search on 'Nomura bmx' and you'll see what i mean.
