Sam is one of the best MTB riders in the world. He rides so smooth, the fork doesn't actually see that high loads - not even on these bigger jumps. Further he can reduce the loads on the fork by landing with more weight on the back wheel. I don't mean to discredit the fork. But Sam is not a good everyday average person tester for this fork. Sure it makes for a good video but the fork barely gets any hits at all. And that is simply down to Sam not wanting to risk getting injured.
I was going to be sad if i did not see Sam scraping those forks with some type of Brick or stone!! Great vid!! I love these wild tests and cheap bikes and stuff like the wooden or bed bike!!
I have similar fork from the same site, 27.5 inch 140mm of travel and is actually a huge upgrade for my 750 euro ebike for which I accidentally changed every part and now it cost me 1500 euro but man upgrading it on your own was priceless.
Had it on mine too, heavy bike.. one jump and it broke on one side... It broke off! Didnt plant my face in pile of rocks luckily... Bought used rockshock for 150 bucks and 4 years later its still intact+ its way stiffer and much much smoother. Now the rear wheel is cooked...
I have this same fork on my dirt jumper but branded as "Bucklos 32" that I bought as a placeholder until bike parts could come back in stock, it's been 2 years of street, dirt and pump track usage and the only issue I had was that my lower caliper bolt got stripped. This fork is very impressive, I didn't think it would last as much as it did, now I'm thinking of instead buying a used fox or rockshox (can't afford a new one, they cost 6 minimum wages in my country), I'm actually going to buy the "36" version of the same fork.
Hey Leo, ¿cómo solucionaste el problema del tornillo del caliper?¿Te colocaron un inserto de bronce en la horquilla o cómo fue? Gracias por tu comentario, lo tendré en cuenta también, kudos!
Sam, that two wheels on the tree trick takes not only balance, but tons of strength. I bet you've got a workout routine. I wish you'd make a video and post it to help young riders become better.
that's true strength does help a lot, but i wouldn't be surprised if it's more years of experience carrying him. workout vid would be tops though agreed 🙏
Had a bad downhill crash in 2019 and been watching your videos over the last couple months and it’s made me pull my finger out and get back into it. Keep up the good work dude 🤙🏼
Best endorsement for those shocks yet. Considering the amount of abuse put into those forks, the average commuter who enjoys a bit of offroad could get quite a lot of use out of them for under a hundred quid. Congrats on the awesome Swatch collab- it and the box it comes in look amazing.
NIce test, but in my opinion riding down a rocky trail with multiple small bumbs would stress the fork more than those smooth slopestyle landings....was fun to watch...
Replaced my forks on my ebike with some Airbike branded forks. I'm sure they are the same as these, except they're matt black with the burred gold-ish stanchions. They came with the brand stickers to apply yourself, so obviously they went in the bin. They look quite stealthy in plain black. Had them a year and cannot fault them at all.
I relaced a pair of wheels with Pasak center lock hubs last year. They spin silky smooth with their sealed bearings; the brake rotor mounting splines are as true as can be, and the spoke flanges are beefy and precision drilled. They're still going strong today. (I hope I didn't jinx them just now... 😁)
NGL they look pretty cool though. Love different colored stanchions. I wish Marzocchi still made the custom colors, I’ve always fancied a lime green or mirror orange stanchion color.
I purchased some off brand Chinese forks when I was trying to start my own MTB import brand.(I actually was offering a $2200/ 23 lb XT equipped carbon hard-tail with hand built wheels) I tested a few forks. Some were good, some sucked. The biggest problem I ran across was the coating on the stanchions. It would wear off.
Sam is the type of geezer you could Sit and chat about bikes for hours with, Ive come back after forgetting this dude for bare time and im glad he hasnt changed. Absolute legend, Always real, Always honest. For 91 Quid this is the ultimate set of road/light MTB forks. Id be interested to see some real harsh abuse on em and their longevity. Give us an update in a few months perhaps?
@SamPilgrim received my TREAD ON IT.... SWATCH TODAY. Exceeded my expectations, Sam. The watch is killer. Super cool. I'm super happy with it. People order this special audition Swatch. You won't regret it.
I guarantee the company making these forks is also making forks for major bike companies as well, and just making their own, allowing people to cut out the middleman who is raking in thousands, and paying the company building them 90 bucks a piece, then selling them for 500-1000% more.
I've taken apart quite a few of these forks and the design they use is similar to suntour. But, the quality varies since it appears that there's 2 different variations of these forks being sold. One variation is cheaper, while the other one is better. However, even the higher quality version is still one step behind suntour quality. And suntour produces the chassis for fox and dvo.
I’ve been cycle touring around Asia with my girlfriend the last year and there’s a huge mountain bike (mainly XC) scene in the Philippines. These forks are so popular out here, except for the locals they’re a luxury fork, not entry level as they would be in the UK. To put it in context, a teacher in the Philippines earns around £3000 per year, so it’s brilliant that there are low cost, functional products that people around the world can just about afford! Nice video as always Sam.
Sam my 7yo son loves watching your video. He was asking about kid sizes shirts and it seems they are all sold out. Do you have an idea of when they may be back in stock? He calls you the bike lad and is stoked every time you drop a new video!
Congratulations on the swatch collaboration mate well deserved fantastic ambassador for your sponsors and myself born in 77 swatch watches were the thing to have when I was a kid love them ❤️ gonna try and grab one hopefully lol also how cool was it to see the wingboarding was in the Olympics sorry font know the right term for the sport but it was epic to watch and the first thing I said was wow sam does that hahaha
Speaking of the t-shirt design, reminds me of the tattoo i have on my left calf. Also features mountains and the sea. Mainly as a tribute to my Dad who was a royal marine and their motto is “ by land, by sea”. I made the land parts mountains as i love the mountains

No im riding a adapter like this too you have to tighten it then ride do a few bunnyhops and tighten it again so it presses on the forks then its tightttt
It's a good option if you wanna sell your bike but keep your Fox shocks too. Its harder to sell an incomplete bike than one with a few questionable part choices.
Hey Sam I want to get in to jump bikes and down hill but man that stuff is up there in price wats a good cheap full set up me and my sons love your content please keep making insane clips
😂😂😂 make a bike with parts like that and put it side by side with a Santa Cruz V10 and I know which I'm choosing. It's not about need it's about want since you might as well have the smoothest, strongest, most reliable ride possible if you can afford it

Goes to show that budget bike parts are getting better .I have always thought that a tough basic fork that doesn't cost the earth would be perfect for most
Gotta try the double crown forks now. They're like £130 I think and should be able to resist bendage with all the extra metal. Also they have damping adjuster on the bottom of the fork. Had a pair on a self built while for like a week. Stuck max Psi in them and they worked great. Accidentally got crazy air onto flat and they survived the force of 60 kilo bike and 80 kilo rider landing flat from about head height 😂
There is a high chance that coating could be of a bad quality and won't last long, like not even a year. So long term test for this one required. Will be good if you'll give it for free to someone who will use it on almost daily basis, but with promise to give you a feedback in a year.
100% sure we'll be seeing this video on ali express as a promotion for these forks

Looks like non tapered crown is the weak spot. But for the price it's very good one.

Just a suggestion. Maybe you could make a video about a cheap rear shock. Then put them both on your bike.

The thing is, a set of Rockshox Pikes probably only cost around 50-60 quid to manufacture in Taiwan.
Those same forks are also available with a tapered steerer.

There is a high chance that coating could be of a bad quality and won't last long, like not even a year. So long term test for this one required. Will be good if you'll give it for free to someone who will use it on almost daily basis, but with promise to give you a feedback in a year.
