The new Vinco team and factory bikes come with a Showa fork and i was looking for just the fork and came up empty handed just wanted to see how much just the forks are......anyone know? Or if you can even buy them?

Showa

We are working direct with a couple of different entities to get them for our bikes at a reasonable cost. We will be offering a front end kit as an upgrade but as for fitment you are very limited due to their size..They pretty much will work on our frame and that is it...

So are you saying your frame differs from the standard '50' headstem design? Or just noting that they are longer than most are used to and will need a good tall rear to match?

the Vinco bike has over 10" of travel.



yes, that is definitely an issue if you have 6" of rear travel.

We are saying that you just need a tall set up and a frame design that will allow the fork to run its course...We are contemplating using a shortened version and making it available for other aftermarket and stock combinations. Look for some more details later in the week...What bike do you have?

Shortened version?

When you say "shortened"... Just how "short" are you talking about? How about for a very custom, "one off" application.... such as one needing, let's say, three inches or so of travel....
