sure you don't mean to say "30-31" ounces? it looks like that's what these weigh about is 30-31 ounces

Metal i meant 25 ounces and not 21 ounces and these new
odyssey forks are 31 1/2 ounces(1 LB 15 or so ounces..i know
that every fork I have had..is light weight and never over 25
ounces 1 lb 9 ounces.

OH BY THE WAY..WHATS UP DAXXXXXXXXXXXXX!

lol a 25 oz fork? maybe one of the odyssey race forks from last decade (?) but the lightest fork I know that is out now is the Autum fork at like 28-29 ounces.

And sup sup Mutt!!

At some point less weight is not good.The bike having some weight is good because it keeps it stable.You  are smoother that way.I believe 10 kg is the lighter a flatland bike should weight.
You tend to look spastic with a very light bike.

10kg is like 22 Lbs and I have no problems with my bike being
like 19.5 pounds and i am stable at that weight and not a spaz
as you state.Some like their bikes a little bit heavier and some
even lighter than my bike..18,17 16 or even 15lbs..6.8kg.


I think that it is however the weight feels good for you and there
are no standards for how much your bike weighs..really!
Agreed.  I prefer a lighter bike all else being equal....

Hello,
The last discussions have been a little longer than expected. Since I am currently looking for a fork, I wanted to take this opportunity to ask which offset you would recommend for beginners?


I would be happy about any advice!


Many thanks in advance!
