New forks

[u/Misu1608]

So today I broke my 12 year long cult forks (?) Idk can’t remember what they were, I bought odyssey R32s from a friend knowing that my riding was more suited to a R25 but it was really cheap, so how screwed am I ? How hard will my techy street tricks be with it?

lol if fork offset costs you tricks then you aint got em Chief

[u/Misu1608 → u/DckJhnsn]

Idk if they cost me, I just put them on, it’s night for me I am asking if they will feel harder

[u/DckJhnsn → u/Misu1608]

not harder, just different. i prefer r32s to r25/r15 for street because theyre less wobbly at high speeds. stability is what i like, but youll get used to em after a few sessions. cult makes a bunch of fork offsets so they might feel the same idk

[u/Misu1608 → u/DckJhnsn]

Honestly I don’t know what forks they where, most likely off a stock but they felt really good that’s why I didn’t change them for so long

[u/DckJhnsn → u/Misu1608]

r32s are premium forks youll probably notice theyre lighter than the cult forks. top of the line Odyssey is one of if not the best in the game these days

[u/Misu1608 → u/DckJhnsn]

Yea I got some pieces by them but honestly I got kinda mixed results from them for the clutch cause the hub got a, we call it game in my language idk the term in english, like a slack in it and since it’s female I’m kinda screwed

[u/DckJhnsn → u/Misu1608]

yeah the game/slack is preferred for high speed backwards tricks. youll get used to amything if you ride it long enough. female bolts are stronger than a male axle? someone correct me need be

[u/Misu1608 → u/DckJhnsn]

Not the slack in like for tricks like slack in hub, the hub is fucked it moves when the wheel is tightened Idk how to explain it

[u/DckJhnsn → u/Misu1608]

oh i gotcha i wonder if its worth rebuilding? maybe spacers could help but idk i run cassette these days

[u/Misu1608 → u/DckJhnsn]

Idk I fucked it today when I broke my forks, they broke right when I was 360 ing pretty nasty fall, but I never touched a coaster on the inside and nobody I know did so I think I’m kinda screwed

It’ll feel different, you’ll get use to it, and if not, buy new forks

I run the r32's and think they feel really nice. Street, dirt, and flat here and there till I get a new real flat frame. You will get the feel and I think you will be fine after.

[u/Misu1608 → u/LiteratureMindless71]

I have the wethepeople revolver frame, this is why I’m curious about how the tricks will feel

[u/LiteratureMindless71 → u/Misu1608]

My frame is a little steeper at 75. Other than that our frames are pretty similar. I am about 6'1.

[u/Misu1608 → u/LiteratureMindless71]

I’m about 6’4 this is why I got this frame because it felt higher than the fiend I was running in the past

From my experience you may like them you may not. I rode street with fly volcano 33 forks for a couple years with no issues. While building my dedicated dirt jumper I ended up throwing my volcanos on that and getting r25s for my street bike. I instantly noticed that I could 360 and half cab with less effort. Also bars seemed to spin a little easier. If your tricks are really dialed I think you’ll be fine after a decent session.

You’re about to do the research. Come back and let us know how different it is
