- In this video I install EBR forks on a Puch Magnum moped.
There were purchased from Treatland.tv.
They are EBR Hydro Maxi length forks.

These kinds of videos are so valuable for the community. Share all the knowledge!
Thank you!
These videos are so good. Really appreciate what you are doing.
Thank you! Ill keep it up!
Took me bout 10 years to get the old Puch (Pinto 2) running again since I bought it & tore it apart.
Honestly don’t think I would’ve been able to do so without the help of you & Travis here on TH-cam.
Thanks a ton been having a blast with it🤘
Thats awesome! I am glad I was able to help you! Travis has some good videos as well!
Heck yea!
Hey, so I actually just had an issue trying to install my EBR forks- the top fork nut will tighten up to a point but then come loose before it reaches its torque spec (found a figure of 30 foot pounds online from someone one mopedarmy). I removed the nut, inspected the threads on the EBR forks which looked fine and on the nut which also looked ok. Then even went & tried threading the nut back on the old forks, which went on totally fine & tight as well. I notice when I go to thread that nut onto the new forks that it doesn’t go on as tight as it did on the original forks. Like there’s even a bit of slop when I begin threading it on. Doesn’t really feel like a proper fit. Did you have to replace that nut when you upgraded forks, or did your original one off the puch work fine for you?
Also, is there supposed to be a washer before that nut?
Id appreciate the help!
@@logandumais7442 that's really strange. I have never had issues. Are you sure it's the same size thread?
Threads appear to be the same! I think I’ll just try a new nut from treats
Thanks again!
Let me know if that fixes it. I have always reused the stock one
I like it that you make the effort to make these short clips for beginners!
Some constructive criticism: I would take all the stuff off the handle bar before taking it off the crown plate. There is less chance of damaging the paint on the tank. Also: when using the big orange attitude modifier to get the bearing race back on, put some wood or aluminium blocks on the vice. This prevents damage of the hard but brittle bearing race.
@@Corn-ped I once got a splinter of a bearing race in my eye when I was trying to whack it of an axle... :-S
Have you ever disassembled or shortened these forks?
I have disassembled them to replace fork seals but never to shorten them. I will make a video soon on seal replacement
would love a video on how to change points on an e50 and what you need to do when you do. my gap shrunk every few hundred miles as the nub wore down to almost nothing over time and i had to replace the points and it took me some time to figure out whether to take the magneto off and if i needed to reset timing and such. finally got it but took me a few hours of what should've been a half hour job. still not sure i did it right, but running good
Yeah! I can do that
How fast did the min wear down? I don't think mine wears down fast enough to be noticeable
Where did you find the maxi bottom race shim at? Mine are ratttlin
From your old forks. Or buy a new one from treatland.tv
Ah crap definitely threw that away or something lol , appreciate the reply dawg !
Yeah man. Good luck! I know treats has em. Just measure to see if you need the shim or not
hello CornPed do you know if the fork is the same between puch magnum and puch monza? as iam going to build a puch monza soon.
I do not know if they fit the Monza. You could measure the head tube.
@@Corn-ped thanks for the reply, ill try that when i get the bike, as it is a new project for me. i love your magnum but i do not think it was sold here in Denmark, we had the maxi, monza, pironeer and some older ones which iam not os clear on. irealy love you videos they are realy clear and i think they will be helpful in my project, i think ill film them and put them on yourtube for documentation.
@@Sth0r yeah that would be great! If you measure the head tube I can measure the magnum and we can compare.
Is it harmful to pound on the lower bearing race like that?
They are brittle, I should have put an aluminum block down. I did that quick because I had torched the race to expand it and had limited time to get it down. I thought it was going to slide all the way down without needing tk tap it. Next time I'll have everything ready in case I need to tap it down.
One could use bike tools - crown race remover (instead of screwdriver) to remove crown. And a crown race setter to set the crown to minimize wear and destruction 😅 !
