I bought the cheapest downhill forks on Amazon - Will they snap? I fit these £160 suspension forks to my Ghost enduro bike and send it at my local bike park MTB trails, hitting jumps and berms! But how long will they last?

Amazon is basically a whole new world of weird and wonderful bike parts so I decided to buy some downhill style suspension forks for £160 and fit them to my Ghost enduro mountain bike to see how good or bad they actually are. Now for £160 these things really do look pretty awesome, the weight is super high but the build quality appears quite good. The adjustments on the fork are non existent and it also seems like there is no rebound damper as they forks top out so easily everytime but that didn't stop the fun. So I headed to twisted Oaks bikepark with excitement on the mind ready to shred these cheap forks as hard as possible down MTB trails, berms, dirt jumps and huge gaps, but for how long would they last?

I hope you enjoy the video!

I love sam. you get other mtb YouTubers riding at 3mph being like "these £900 forks aren't good enough I need £1200 ones" meanwhile sam just goes full send on the sketchiest bikes ever, proving the rider is more important than the bike.

I love the fact that 90% of other mtb youtubers use proper tools and this guy just goes at it with a hammer

Awesome.
I'm gonna buy those now, for my budget build mtb. I've been building a mtb with just cheap Amazon off brand parts, I couldn't figure out the forks I should get until now. Thank you Sam! 🤙

I want to see Sam convert one of his bikes into a sea-faring vessel.

The stanchions are designed that way because they were packaged with high power rear-hub motor enduro ebikes to be able clear the battery case when turning at full lock. Great vid

This video is mad!

I looked at these the other day and thought of buying them just for a laugh, but I wasn't brave enough haha

It turns out Sam is the hero I needed; because not only did he buy them, he absolutely rode the hell out of them

Zoom forks are actually very durable. I've been using a very cheap zoom coil fork because it came on my bike from the factory. It still works even tho I tried to break it many times

All around I have to say as a cyclist, riding for well over 45 years. These are some of the most creative and entertaining cycling videos I've seen. ✌🏼.

its amazing that you make videos like this through the week, then casually pop up from time to time and get placed in a competition that would take serious training and committment from any mere mortal to enter and just smash it. Your skill level is beyond mastery.
