what do you think about G-Force Racing Axle, and G-Force Aluminum Front ,Wheel Spacers? will that be a good set up on a 400ex for TT?

I just bought the g-force racing axle for my yfz and it is awesome. it also has a limited lifetime warrenty. Very nice and cannot be beat for the price!!!! looks identical to lonestar and durablue w/o the HIGH PRICE. i am very impressed with the g- force axle and would without a doubt buy another!!!!!!!

A friend of mine got a G-Force axle on his Blaster, looks pretty nice. I read in another thread that someone already bent theirs, almost like it's as weak as the Durablue. Don't know about that, maybe they were just jumping way too high and landed wrong.

from what im hearing, g-force is good and bad. i hear cases of it breaking and bending, others i hear its awesome. seems kind of weird on such a new product

sounds to me like their production might not be that consistent if there are both good and bad axles. i hope i got a good once, since according to ups.com there was one sittin on the step back home on monday. (hope someone took it inside, dont want the dog to chew up the box.)

I know i don't jump much, if i do, its only about 5 feet or less off the ground.

I haven't seen anything that says it has a lifetime warrenty, not even in their ads in DW. Aren't these axles a lot heavier than stock ones anyway? All I's know is my friend jumps his 440ex at glamis 40 feet and more and a least 10 feet in the air, yet his stocker is still straight.

i dont know exactly what their warranty program is, but they probably arent going to replace an axle that was snapped on a jump. They probably just cover defects in workmanship.

they replaced my buddy's bent axle for his raptor. i don't think i'd buy one tho, he bent it when he landed a little crooked on about a 30 foot double.

I called Rocky Mountain and asked about the warranty. She said that it only covers manufacturing defects. She said it would not cover damage caused by riding. I will not be buying one of these, I think I will go with a Lonestar.

I hate when we as a customer get 2 different information.
I just called then, talked to Brandon and he said they will change it for a new axle or at least fix it if we bent or brake the axle. He said this is called manufacturing defects. :confused:

I`m not sure about getting one and later they don`t get me a new one.

If your not going to be doing a lot of jumping I would just get some wheel spacers and save your money. But the g-force is a good axle. I have one and I ride MX. I've landed sideways on it and it is still straight. Its a great axle at a very low price.

i had a g-force on my yfz for 2 races and the first race was so muddy that you couldnt jump so really i only have 1 good race on it and it bent when i went of an estemated 25 feet double which isnt really that big of a jump. But anyways i sent it back to rockymountain atv and they refunded it and i put that money towards and i bought the burablue ellimenator x-33 with billet hubs but i havent raced it yet so i'll find out if the durablue holds up.if you dont jump that often then the g-force would probably work out. goodluck choosing which axle to buy!

The Feb 05 issue of Dirt Wheels Magazine did a product evaluation of the G-Force axle...they seemed to like it.
