Advantages: Price, stiffness, travel, durability Disadvantages: Average weight
RockShox seem to have the budget corner of the fork market well and truly cornered and this latest tora is no exception.
Other manufacturers budget forks are cheap, heavy, flexy and not very pleasant to ride on but the tora blows away all these expectations.
It comes in at a sensible (but no lightweight) weight, but makes up for this with excellent lateral stiffness.
The travel is extremely plush for a fork in this price range and absorbs both small trail bumps as well as large drops with ease.
This particular U Turn model allows adjustable travel and the fork features both V brake mounts as well as an IS disk mount.
RockShox are known for their reliability and with regular servicing this fork should last a very long time. Simply brilliant for the money ...
Advantages: Gary Oldman rocks, you can scare your kids into not doing heroin!! Disadvantages: The start of the film is pants, Chole Webb's portrayal of Nancy makes you cringe
Sid and Nancy.. a match made in hell or a match that was so perfect it just couldn?t last? For those of you out there who don?t really know who Sid and Nancy are, here is a little biography:
Sid Vicious (real name John Simon Richie) was the replacement bass guitarist for the 1970?s punk-rock band, The Sex Pistols. Sid was a drug addict, addicted to cocaine and other narcotics but until he met Nancy, has never touched heroin. Sid became an idol for punk rockers because of his bad lad ways and was adored by his record company.. not so much by his fellow band members due to Sid?s inability to play the right song, not being in time and missing gigs. However, non of that really occurred until Nancy showed up?
Nancy Spungen was a junkie who sold/supplied and took heroin on a very regular basis. She was an American who told her friends ...
Advantages: Very robust and firm wheel. wireless Disadvantages: MAY STRIKE SOME AS "CHEAP" LOOKING
This wheel comes extremely well packaged and may take you a few mintues to actually get into it but atleast this lends assurance that it will transport well when it was shipped.
The packages comes in 3 separate parts:
>Wheel
>Pedals
>Table attachement
WHEEL:
The wheel itself is covered in a highly durable rubber covering making it very easy to keep a grip on it, which is an important feature if like me yours hands can sweat in the middle of an intense race. The wheel also has all the buttons you would find on a normal controller and they are all intuitively placed. The X,Y, A,B buttons are placed in easy reach of the thumb so when driving they are easy reachablt. The trigger buttons are also present as large levers placed directly behind the wheel so as you can easily use them but with enough room between them and the wheel ...
