Wow! KGB kick ass.

The new electro bars in 7.3" and 8" both sweep and no sweep...  :wub:

800g and 860g respectively.... awesome.  :beer:

Forks are cool looking, plus they are 1.5cm shorter, (giving a steeper HA) and light-az 925g!!!!


Great work guys.  :mellow:

I see some issues with those dyno forks, whoops, I mean kgbeat-down forks.

With those slots your wheels gonna end up moving around... Especially if I rode 'em. There is a reason for making them tight laterally. Well, at least there is some expensive cnc work on those dropouts...

I like my suelo's.

Now that I look at it, maybe those slots are for some "hand cutters" to hold the wheel in place... hmm.

It would be no more an issue than your rear wheel moving around and that doesn't really happen that often.

the back wheel has chain tensioners. which help hold it in place. bitd we used to drill holes in our pegs so we could tighten them with a screwdriver because they came loose so often. Especially when you are working on rope's and tricks where the bike is vertical putting added stress on the dropouts. That is why so many drop outs are mangled, from the movement that comes from the slots.

Trust me, without some way to lock it down, it will move around. And with the ability to slide you will have one side different from the other side. Unless they put some type of piece that will lock into the cut out area.

It will be interesting to hear the issues when people start riding them.
