THE TICK'S TOP 5 BUDGET FORKS!!

[@dadboddamien]

Just came across your channel at 4am today while researching budget but quality brake systems and here you are with the forks too. At 44 years old I just picked up my first mtb, an old hardtail specialized that needs some tlc and parts replaced. Looks like it's been hodgepodged together with parts from wish that aren't working. Brakes are the first project then drive train and forks. Great videos guys,even though I'm late to the game

[@MTBAlex]

15:12 thanks for the mention. Yeah, that is a great fork, had it on my Original XR Pro build, then on my 1st blue axum build. Great fork

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Very nice, I knew you were a fan!

[@LebronPhoto1]

That Suntour Epixon fork is what is on my GT. I like the remote lockout. It saves this old guy from having to lean down to turn that switch manually. Great list.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

🤣🤣 Cmon man, the know is not so bad!! LOL Thanks for watching brother!

[@thinkaboutit3011]

I would love to see how a older used fork would compare to all of these. Like if you found something decent but cheap and rebuild it and compare

[@That_Stealth_Guy]

I think that would be an interesting video as well. I feel that too many people get caught up on having the latest and greatest, falsely believing that newer=better.

[@mtbboy1993]

@@That_Stealth_Guy a second hand fork will be a lot cheaper, and you might get a top model for same price a new budget fork.

[@That_Stealth_Guy]

@@mtbboy1993 I know, I picked up a very nice 4 yr old RockShox SID for $225 with shipping for a friends bike about 3 months ago. I have ridden the bike and that is a very nice fork, the only complaint I have is that it is blue!

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

We have considered doing something like that someday, but there will be a few snags. John you said you picked up a fork for $225 so it would have to compete in the $201-$400 category and that has some stud forks in it. If we have to put any money into the fork that would also go into the price point total. Hopefully we will get to do something soon. Thanks y'all 👍

[@That_Stealth_Guy]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I think that the RS SID I got would more than hold it's own in that catagory, even with it's 100mm travel.

[@allanridesbikes5856]

I run the Epixon in a 29er with the blacked out decals adjusted to 130mm on my hardtail and love it. Great fork for a damn good price.

[@williampage5033]

Man, great video as usual! This week should be dubbed “Bonus Week”. I’m glad the Suntour 120mm got an honorable mention. If you upgrade the cartridge for $160, you can get the high and low speed adjustments option to replace the remote lockout. At that point, it takes you out of the $200 budget range, but there isn’t many options like that in the straight steerer fork segment.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

BONUS WEEK!! LOL Thank you William, the Suntourb120nos a solid fork thats believe every bidget rider should checkout!! We really need to try to extend a forks travel, but we are just not that channel!! 😆😆

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Thanks brother, and man sadly I do not think they will go down ever again....🥺🥺

[@mtbboy1993]

if the fork binds up due to slack head angle, it's not good enough for the use, might be bad tolerances, bad bushings, worn out bushings, or be flex, all forks flex, but having the perfect balance is key. But more seals there are more stiction there is.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Looking forward to using it more.

[@graemebaker-henderson390]

What do you guys think of the yellow warning sticker on the budget forks telling you not to go on anything other than small jumps? I would love to get a budget fork but I need it to hold up. I won't be going to crazy on it but I will be going off some jumps. I think the LUTU is my best option because I have a 29 in bike with QR axles. Do you think this would work for me? Thanks for all the great videos. Love the channel!

[@patchesthejaybird8431]

Nice top 5! X-Fusion used to be a really happening company. I bought one of their Velvet forks in 2009. What a great fork. I still run it on my Full sus bike. Based on your review, and experience with the Velvet, I almost bought an Enix. However, the frame I was going to build up didn't materialize, so I waited, and now they are gone. I finally got my old Jamis Dakar frame back, so I decided to buy the Epixon. It's the "Honorable Mention" model, for the straight steerer. I'll be using a 27.5 fork with 26" wheels. It should work fine, and slacken the geo a bit in the process. I can't wait to try it. Then the bike will go to one of my kids.

[@patchesthejaybird8431]

By the way, I'm watching this video from Oklahoma City. I'm much closer to you all than I am ordinarily. I wonder if they still rent Mountain bikes here? I rented about 8 years ago or so. I didn't bring any riding gear, so I probably won't worry about it.

Rolling some BJJ, I see....nice. Keep rolling! And, put on an ear-muff helmet for the cauliflower. But! That's not why I'm writing... I'm writing about you a really good front fork budget review. In particular, I just bought an e-bike that has a straight tube it's not tapered. And all your forks there or tapered Fork I believe? Can you recommend a budget fork with rebound, lockout, all that, but NOT a "tapered head-tube"?? And further, I have a 26-inch wheel with 4in rubber tire on it. So the specs are weird because it's not 26 and it's not 27.5 or even 29er... how do I figure out the length the Fork should be??

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Hey brother thanks for the comment and the view. Now cauliflower is hardened so no need for headgear!! LOL 😆 And as far as the fork is concerned if it's a folding ebike I believe all the forks have the same steerer tube length, but you could always cut it down. Here is an affiliate link for ya to checkout amzn.to/3aYQXxE These seem to have what your looking for

[@BenjaminWasHere]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS it's not a folding bike. It's a 26in with 4 inch tires, made by speedrid. Which is the same popular black hardtail like another 10 different companies have, they're all the same just different names. Soon as I got it, the fork bottoms out and that's pretty much it. I didn't expect anything else so all good. But, I need to put a decent shox in front. Note that - since I wrote this post, I saw your show on the tapered head "adapter". Do you think that adapter will work for the budget shock that you recommended in your budget shox review show? Or, is there a strait not tapered budget shock that you like? That would be the "best" option for this basic bike frame design. The adapter a fall bak option. By the way, I have a long history in BJJ other stuff. I used to fight with Eric Paulson, Henzo Gracie in New York, ...etc. I'm so old, that when I was a regular in fightin, it was before the name "mixed-martial-arts" was even a thing. We used to call it "hybrid fighting!" Ha

careful when buying OEM parts from third party sellers. I bought an OEM fork on Amazon (RST brand) that had the serial number removed. The dropout snapped on me about 3 miles into its first ride (thankfully not while descending so it was only scratches, bruises and a taco'd front wheel). The seller sent me another one and it also had the serial number removed. I was also talking with RST and apparently people will pull their rejected OEM products and sell them. OEM products are not sold by their manufacturers and unless you are buying a take-off from an individual seller, it's going to be super suspect.

Tick, the little bit of price difference to cross $200 for me doesn't matter much. I'm torn between the 100mm recon rl with 9mm axle and the epixon 120mm fork with 9mm axle. It appears that the sun tour is about 2 1/2oz lighter but the rockshox claims strength with steel uppers. I'm a heavier guy and don't ride super hard but I'm leaning towards the recon rl for more strength due to my weight. What's your thoughts on my dilemma? Would be going on my medium axum dp.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Hey brother, considering the slack that the Axum has and you being a bigger guy...I would say go with the 100mm travel RockShox. It's probably a little tougher and the travel should be more than enough to suit your needs👍👍👍

[@bestreviews887]

You should try the xfusion rv1 on the Gt pro

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Hmm..Gotta look it up 🤷‍♂️

[@bestreviews887]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS okay brother I’ll send you some shots of my Gt pro and the group set I’m running it’s a beast

[@mdgeist472]

I only see XFusion on complete bikes now so the bike companies are buying them all.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Damn Straight!

[@UnburdenedByWhatHasBeen]

I order stuff on aliexpress all the time. They are like the ebay or amazon of china. If your product doesn't show they will give you your money back. The only issue is send stuff back to china.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Gotcha, we may try to visit once again man. I know they are crazy cheap!! ,

[@UnburdenedByWhatHasBeen]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS yup, you're just cutting out the middle man most of the time. Sad to sa most of this crap is made in china anyway.

nice video

[@srpskic1706]

bros cheapest fork is more expensive than my whole bike

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Dang! All of these forks were under $200 and a few were about $170. What bike are you ridding that's cheaper than that?

[@parker952]

I can’t find the fusion Enix do u know anywhere I can get it other than eBay

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

No sir, unfortunately that fork is a very rate one now 😟

[@bubbabubbie1]

Which one allows you to fit 2.6 wide tires or even wider? I want to also upgrade the width of my front 29er tire. Thank you!

[@shadyhazza]

yo the 26" enix is 100mm travel yeah? i was considering putting a 27.5mm fork on my 26", but if that doesn't work out, at least i can replace my old dirtjam pro's with enix with the same specs

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

That's a great idea!! Love me a good backup plan👍👍alsondpdnt know the travel, gotta look at the link...

[@glen3509]

Never mind about the background noise. 🤘🤘

[@fckthesystem497]

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Man take a look at the Manitou markhor. It's buttery smooth and you can find it a little cheaper right now as well. Good luck and thanks for watching man.

[@zulfitrizulkarnainasnahzul7276]

hi ... are those forks as you mentioned available in America only ? can I find it's in Asia ? I'm in Indonesia bro..😄

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

LOL Man i have no clue!! 🤣🤣🤣 We are American, good luck and don't know were to start!!

[@kotan2185]

Do you guys think the Bucklos factory 32 140mm is a good buy for 100 bucks? Im mainly just want the thru axle and a longer travel fork to slacken my bike a bit.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Man we would give it a try, the price seems right.....Let us know if you get one!

[@glen3509]

When i bought my Trek 4300 (Y frame👍👍) in July 2007 it had Shimano Altus. I quickly started buying higher end parts and components. I had XT 739 V-brake levers and XT 760 V-brakes put on from my previous Norco bike👍👍i bought a couple pairs of Mavic 719 wheels👍👍 (which are long gone😢 lol) An XT M770 Crank, 7075 aluminum Titec H👹llBent riser bars, XT Shadow rear derailer, XT 750 front dereailer, Thomson 7000 series aluminum 140mm Elite stem, Thomson Elite 410mm post, an XTR 960 or 970 cassette (Hopefully with 6/4 Titanium cogs. This cassette cost me 💰250.00🍁 in 2011) and lastly (my apologies for "writing a book HaHa) XTM772 Rapid Fire plus shifters🤘🤘
