So, I look at the measurements on fork wall thickness and I see things like 1.0/.5. 1.0 is the big end... but .5 is waaay too thin to be the small end. Is that the measurement of the tube before they draw it down to the smaller size?
What's a "thick" fork blade? What's a "thin" one?
I asked in a forum a couple weeks ago if a .9/.6 would work on a road setup for someone around 195 and got a yes without disent... but now I'm looking at these guys and since I don't have an understanding of exactly what's being measured and what's standard, I can't decide.
EB713 - 1.2/0.7, 395mm length, rake 15x45mm (touring. 45mm offset, sharper bend)
EB716B - 1.0/0.5, 370mm length, rake 15x45mm (touring. 45mm offset, sharper bend, but road weight)
Help? ;-)
