Some (that are capable)+ Most (that are not) = All bicycle forks.
To be "completely" wrong I would have had to say "
all" not most. Saying "many" is a joke. Take a look at a modern stock, out the dealer-door* 125cc moto-x fork and then look at all but the most capable downhill forks. They are not even close. Sure an MX bike is a little heavier, but really not all that much when you add rider weight to bike weight for gross vehicle weight that the shocks see.
Reading comprehension. Think about that the next time you call someone "completely" wrong....
*Let's not even compare pro MX kit. You barely get close comparing pro downhill kit to stuff you can buy out the door at your local Honda dealership.
