|   Upgrade single crown to dual crown | Black Brodie
May 19, 2003 2:33 PM | | After a weekend of downhilling, I'm considering upgrading from my 5" Z1 QR20 to a dual crown fork. Is it worth it to upgrade to something like a Sherman Slider, which has only 6 inches of travel or should I go for at least 6.5 - 7 inches like Jr T or Boxxer? I ride a Brodie Diablo with 5.5 inches in the rear. |

Some companies void the frame warranty if a dual crown is placed on there. Also, factor in the type of riding you do, the weight (dual crowns do weigh more) and the cost you are willing to spend. |
