no i dont mind. its a dj3
Nice. :D Aren't DJ3s very heavy though?
Maelstrom
04-17-05, 12:44 PM
They are. But people who dj don't care. I don't notice the weight when i am in the air. Besides I am used to dc forks which weight about the same.
Cornish_Rdr_UK
04-17-05, 12:48 PM
To be honest, i dont notice the weight anyway... I love the way my DJ's felt, and the weight was a definate penalty i was prepared to pay for the stregth, but as I said, I didnt actually notice it.

yeh you got it zeddybear yeh the hardrocks great now but i made a few updgrades. if your not doing big hucks or anything you shouldnt have to upgrade much for trail riding apart from fork and maybe brakes
