Hmm stance would go down well 8)
Or some DJers?

 

[Dicko888]

r there any other brand or models that would do the job? I dont no if this will change things but i have a large frame and im a large bloke

 

[Dicko888]

Hey dicko, Jonny here.

We have a pair of kingpins in- on a bike. Come give em a try, as well as the other models

Im not sure if kingpins are a good idea to go on a hotdog frame. Get some statics or DJ's or something, not big ass DC forks.

well yes and no. The problem is that the splice forks were only 2 weeks old. So the more we can prevent damage like this again- the better. But agreed- it would ride nicer with the single crowns. Strength is the key here though.

PM is also an option...

but to your bike IMO Steer far away from Mazocchi DJs ... depedning on what you plan rideing i would go a pair of manitou balck elite (not the RTWD) or may be some stance blunts?

How much do you have to spend?
If you're on a large budget, get sherman jumpers. if you're on a not-so-large budget try the Manitou Splice super for $595 at www.fortheriders.com
If you want a hifh quality for with a bit more travel than the sherman jumper, you could look at the Rock Shox Pike or Reba, or get a Sherman Firefly with a black travel reduction kit.

These look like they go alright, but I really wouldn't reccomend plastic.
