Hero Thunderbolt Aluminum BMX Race Forks Are Sick!

hero thunderbolt bmx forks

The folks at Daylight started a new BMX parts line called Hero Bike Parts. The brand was started in order to create premium machined USA based parts to better control quality. Their flagship part is the unique looking Thunderbolt race forks and they’re turning heads. I’m digging the way these look and look forward to see them on the track.

Our one piece steer tube/crown begins as a 3 pound/ 9″ long solid bar of aluminum that is 100% milled to size and spec. The legs are custom extruded and bent tubes, thin-wall and large diameter tubing for strength while saving weight. The coped joints are laser cut — meaning this entire fork is essentially machined with virtually zero gap between the welded elements. Our dramatcally angled drop-out interface is also forward thinking for greater weld area and greater strength. The result will be a ride that’s as stiff as any carbon fork while delievring a smoother feel on the track.
