OG Kun Fu??
« on: May 31, 2010, 09:26:27 PM »
I really want a new frame bad, and since im graduateing I may have the money to get one. I never really realized that it was even at FF for that price and i dont mind a red frame  ^_^. SO who's ridden one ? How do you feel about it? TJ?

It's not solid. It has great geometry, but I broke two of them badly at the headtube because the frames are weak as hell up front. If someone tells you they aren't breaking consistently there, they're lying.



Had to have my first one welded up

inertia is a great frame, i had my class x 2 almost break in half (i could litterally step on it and snap it), and this one feels much more solid than my class x 2, its as solid as my sick child badda bling felt..

Very foolish of many companies to ignore front triangle gussets...

Here's mine from last weeks roadtrip.  ^_^  I randomly drop off ledges, jump down 3 and 4 sets, and ride park occasionally with it too. Love it. Got the OG bars too.  :beer:

and thats not enough? i wish i could ride 1 frame for  that long... acctualy kun fu was the only frame wich lasted me around a year, but i was a beginner with easy tricks, so i gues that was the reason. huh i wonder how much would it last me now hehe

ive had mine for one year and still feels like new to me. i even drilled the dropouts for 14mm axles and its still fine.
i weigh around 170-180 pounds and do a lot of whiplashes and falling, so i guess it withstood the test. im just one of those people which dont really break frames (had a wtp div for 2,5yrs before it broke)

for that price its a killer, i would go for it if i were you.
