Hi all,

I may soon'ish aquire a pair of these forks.
I am aware i need a new wheel build to accomodate the 24mm hub.
However does anyone know what the brake mounts are?

I'm currently running a Hayes El Camino of a Fox Talas R, and still unsure as to what I'm running now in terms of brake mount.

    if they are the early ones dont bother they are not worth the hassel. the later ones were improved. but leaky and flexy come to mind.

    They are this years ('07's)
    I've been told that they are ok as long as you dont do anything big or dare even leave the ground, which is about right for me, plus i can swap back to the Talas's if I want to do anything largeish.

    Though cheers for the opnion.

    Any other suggestion for AM DC forks 180mm max? (sorry)

    They are specific to the Enduro aren't they?

    Lyriks are supposed to be the nutts at the moment. Not too heavy, plenty travel and adjustment. Sound like the perfect AM forks to me.

    They are sposed to be good, but if it came down to it, id probably stick to my Talas' rather than going to another SC.

    Theres nothing worng with them, I just wanted the opportunity to have the choice of SC or DC. I will sitll use the Talas' regardless just choosing them based on the kind of riding i wanted that day.

    My mistake, didn't see the dual crown description.

    You are talking about TALAS 36s, yes?
