Zoom is a Brazilian brand and as a Brazilian that rocked them from 2012 to 2017 I must say: these are not low quality forks per se, they are made with the mentality of "the best quality that can fit into a brazilian's budget". I never rode these because they were released after I stopped doing DH, but I can tell you that they look way better engineered from the one I used. The one I used was a mechanical "double decker" 150mm that was heavy as fuck but lasted the whole 5 years with me, getting beaten and falling down cliffs with me. If you want a quality budget DH fork, go for them, but if you want a nuanced geometry and configurability, then these are not for you, because we brazilians like to focus on durability at the expense of over-engineering, so it can fit our pockets.

I bought forks, carbon fibre bars, clamp, seat post, knock off hollotech crank, pedals and a new ultra budget derailleur all off AliExpress. Total rebuild cost about €180 and lost 4kilos in weight. Absolutely love my no brand piece of crap. Feels amazing. Honestly feels better than my brother in law's €1500 carbon bike and weighs less.

I had a fork fail back 20 years ago. It was an aluminum Ballistic brand fork. It was recalled by Raleigh but the shop still had it around and I ended up with a sour deal on it, not knowing it was recalled. I woke up in the ICU of Vanderbilt. I was just popping off a root in ground to dive bomb a bank and the wheel disappeared. I always wear a helmet but that day was out building instead of really riding and didn't have one. In this odd case, the doctors could evaluate that had I had my full face moto helmet on that it would have likely broken my neck or paralyzed me. I ended up with a fractured skull, nose, ribs, ripped parts of my face, and the wild kicker.. I bit off the front 3 inches of my tongue, and the teeth that bit it off were found stuck IN the tongue chunk that was left laying in the trail. A friend went back and found that for me. I was knocked out for about 15 minutes.. my cuz was behind me, saw it all. He propped me up and went for help.. I looked near dead. I came to while he was gone and got up and in shock, started my way out of the woods using the bike like a walker in a wheelie. I met up with the incoming EMT squad about halfway out. They still say that I am the most busted up person they ever saw that was still going. Glad to be a toothless ripper with ya, Sam. Seeing how awesome you rock that gap makes me a little more ok with it all for myself. I do live in Kentucky, so it's not as unfashionable. haha. Best to ya bud. -Pat

Excellent job! Super entertaining idea and the editing (stone’s throw, etc) was on point in this one. My wife and I were laughing hard. I’d love to see some more ridiculous Amazon parts get torture tested. I’ve considered some dual crown death for my fat bike, but am scared to death of when it snaps!

He did say it was really heavy. It's not likely to break on you if they didn't engineer it to be light. Those things are likely made in the same factory as all the expensive ones. My guess is a cheapo product like this gets some machining ops skipped to save money (and that's why it's heavier). I doubt they'd make a purchase of different raw material just to make a cheapo product. The exception would be carbon fiber, it's cheaper to use less carbon. That doesn't apply to aluminum - removing material costs more money.

You should test out the cheap Suntour forks that come with all entry level MTB’s these days and see how much they can take 😂 Because they all have stickers on them saying something like “not intended for off-road use or jumping” or something along those lines 🤣

dude I love you contrasted your abilities and jokes with the more normal skill level rider and he said he really couldn't tell a difference. It brought out how freaking hard you rode these things. I'm honestly thinking about picking these up and fucking around with a build idea I could never normally afford. badass. definitely do that again with the average rider contrasting their opinion. doesn't need to be long that was perfect. it teaches me alot about how to analyze my riding style skills bc i look like the other dude.

I have those forks on several of my bikes. Anything I put next to them looks cheap or fake. The rigidity,the construction,the metals used are just unsurpassed. The diameter of the tubes is about 1,5 times bigger than the supposedly well known brands.

The real test is if they still work in a month or not. I'm not a parts snob and I don't even ride hard but the ~150 quid suntour forks on my bike have squeaked and pushed out water almost as long as I've had them. I guess the seals are crap out of the box and water got in them.
