i wouldn't spend much money upgrading it, instead save up up for a better bike. plus if you intend to use this as a dirt jump bike it will probably break.
Mate, I would seriously think about getting a new bike instead of spending your money on this one. My friend has one, but its almost dead and the brakes don't work at all. He had a bad crash on it on cannock chase, now he's thinking of getting a decent second hand one for £200.
sorry mate but instead of gettin new forks it is better getin a whole new bike!I mean its an apollo and they are rubish, your better off geting a whole new bike.
Personally I wouldn't put those nice new forks on this bike. If you do any dirt jumping on this frame, I suggest you find some jumps close to a hospital 'cos I wouldn't want to rely on this frame staying in one piece after a couple of heavy landings, but good luck anyway.
Good point. That would mean a new head tube and headset. You'd be better off just getting a second hand real jump bike! This bike is noway meant to handle any type of jumping. It's meant for people to ride on the road and on a bumpy track!
how do u put marzocchi forks on a bike like this with a funky old type head tube? do marzocchi even make forks that will fit that? if, as you say, you have bought some marzocchi forks for it i suggest you go take a look and see if they will fit.
ill be honest .... it isnt good for a begginers bike it is worse ..... apollo is just good for breaking thats it ! simply because they are probaly built by a blind man in china !! ..... and the bits that u have said arnt xc parts
get a new frame and just start over ... i rekon thats ya best bet.

you are mental spending money on this. just make sure any parts u buy are able to be fitted to a better more upgrade worthy bike in the futre.
