Snafu – UL Race Fork
Few BMX parts have
enjoyed a greater influx of technology in recent years that forks have. Why ten
years ago no one expected a three-pound fork to last one season. Today SNAFU
pros are getting three to six months out of our sub-two-pound UL Race fork, no
sweat. Metallurgical technologies like annealing, heat-treating and rifle
butting have made these leaps in durability possible, and you should be
thankful. Of course, the price of a fork has increased 50 percent in 10 years,
too, but one BMX fork still costs less than three skateboard decks, and no
serious skater expects his deck to last more than two weeks.
