    Same as the old g-force axle from rocky mtn they offered. I have one still and liked it, but I dont do big jumps so I cant tell you how well it might hold up otherwise.

    They are great axles I have one on my 400ex and I race Extreme Dirt Track, Not good at all for MX though. They will bend very easily on the big jumps.

    This is very important so listen up, after you wash the bike always put wd40 on the axle after each wash because if you don't the cheap chrome up there will rust overtime.

    have you personally ran a g force or tusk axle? do you have a credible reference to back up your opinion?

    I got at least 500 hours on mine of hard woods and dune riding and it never once bent. I only swapped to a stocker b/c I dont like the way it pushes in the corners and is a bit wide for woods. Course I also dont do insane jumps either

    As for them bending easy, compound the fact that anyone over 200lbs will bend stuff easy and doing 60ft table tops wtf do you want for the price lol?
