Hi all, just to let you know, Twalcom have had Ohlins fork cartridges produced for the HP2. These replace the stock inners, and are fully adjustable...

As they are introduced into the original fork, I imagine they are a bit under 45mm ?

Is it a good solution to decrease the diameter instead of increase it ? :nenau

Don't you beleive that the solution Shiver Marzocchi 50 mm is better ?

Thank you

yes, I know, the reason why I said 'decrease' the diameter is when we consider what is put intothe original fork.

I don't understand well this :

- original fork is said too weak
- the overall diameter is said to thin for the weight ;

How is it possible to significantly upgrade the fork by keeping the external diameter as is ?

Or, is this solution only good in the 'value for money' perspectiv ?

:confused:
 
I took a ride with a HP2 with Twalcom Ohlins Forks installed. It works really good and i think it is the best upgrade you can do to the original forks...
If you have the money :augie
FYI my HP2 forks are done by dr shock

I will go for MST solution than :comfort
 
yes, I know :D

For me, the MM is well born with rear ohlins & Marzocchi as is :clap

The HP2E seems to me a little bit undersized :eek

But I prefer the complete solution of MST :thumb2

yes, 950 pounds for the rear Ohlins is too expensive... I found for less money in San Marino :rob

I've not seen the product of MST on the website ?
 
San Marino is not in Euro space.
I had to pay an extra bank bill about 16€....
But it is still cheaper

How much are they selling at....? What's the web site? The weak pound doesn't help in the UK...San Marino is not in the EU, but is allowed to use the Euro as its national currency. This also means that there will be an import tax...
