what was wrong with the white forks?  are they colony ones?
Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: rodslovechild on May 19, 2008, 07:42 PM
nothing is wrong with them, yea they are the ones that are standard on the colony endeavour, i just changed them to some colony mvps as they were lighter, they are sitting here next to me all lonely without a bike to go on  :LolLolLolLol:

they enjoyed their one and only ride at creation though :LolLolLolLol:

The colony endeavor ones I have have no lugs, also they weigh loads.

you have the grey guettlers don't you pickle? like on my fly? they weigh heaps less.

yeah no worries


Joe, do they honestly weigh loads?  yes my ryan G ones are light as!  maybe i'll just stick with grey then  :daumenhoch:

worth a look though  :)

Yeah, the RG are much much lighter dude. I'm letting my Rg's go with the fly, got the std colony black on the Endeavor for now, leaves something to upgrade later. also the paint matches perfect, the black is kinda semi-matt.
I'm also not running a front brake, I never do stoppies and it's one less thing to think about.

Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: pickle on May 20, 2008, 04:00 PM
your RG's are grey aren't they?  if they were white i would've swapped ya!
Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: rodslovechild on May 20, 2008, 04:01 PM
according to my kitchen scales they weigh 2.8lbs or 1.27 kgs

dunno if they are any good to you, they have the hole drilled right through for the front brake not the actual lugs welded on, dunno how much they would be worth, maybe 20-25
Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: pickle on May 20, 2008, 04:02 PM
cheers mate i think mine are a lot lighter!  but send me some piccies dude!  :daumenhoch:

Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: rodslovechild on May 20, 2008, 04:13 PM

Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: pickle on May 20, 2008, 04:15 PM

Post by: rodslovechild on May 20, 2008, 04:16 PM
on ebay the colony headsets are 12 quid from america i think, if not stevie b probably knocks em out for around that anyway, hes always come up trumps with stuff for me :daumenhoch:
Title: Re: thought i'd camp it up a little??
Post by: JT71 on May 20, 2008, 04:17 PM
a very fair price, £20 posted...I wonder if steve still has the white frame... (i'm joking)

Pickle: mine came with a standard black big nut thingy, I swapped it for the nice 3/8 drive hole with cable slot
cap off the RG's.
