Now you have problems with it, we foreshadowed this.

And, even if you get a better fork, your bike will still be a POS.

Man people like Kenneth really give 14 year olds a bad rep... then again maybe all 14 year olds are like that in the US (no offense to any united states citizens (I refuse to call them americans... America is a whole ****** continent with way more countries than the US)).

Well those are my "20" cents lol.

I agree, you probably would buy a new fork if you had gotten one of the bikes the members on here recommended. BUT, I doubt it would have been in the first month you bought it. You might have actually been able to ride it for a while, figure out what you like and your riding style, save up then buy a fork to suit your needs. Now you are just scrambling to find any cheap fork that you could throw on your bike.

And as for disc brakes...there are always posts about issues because it seems like people are scared of their brakes. Disc brakes aren't as fragile/magical as everyone seems to believe. And most of the posts about brake issues are generally from newbies or people with lower end brakes.

Australia and Canada will both become super powers and compete with each other.

I wonder what the world would be like with Aus and Can as the top dogs?

Obviously you don't watch the Simpsons...I know free_pizza is a fan and that who I was directing the comment toward but didn't you notice that I used nuclear, then used Homer's "DOH" and then spelled the word the way he does (I even put at the end to convey the message)....sheesh...kids!

if you are going to try "burn" me, double check your spelling before pushing the post button, because you come out sounding like an even bigger moron.
