>>1361689>>1361697>A lefty fork isn't lighter than an equally rigid twin fork.Wow so it's even worse than I imagined. Why the fuck would anybody get one then? Or more importantly, why the fuck are they made in the first place?
>>1361697>Cannondales lefties were a big success around the world because they turn heads and the brand got more popular.Sounds like absolute bollocks.
>Oh they will buy it, as long as these gimmicks look rad af.No, no they won't. Think of something like pic related - it has a "cool" rear screen but it's just a fucking gimmick and ultimately it's a crap phone. So no one bought it. Same with gimmick cars, gimmick anything. People don't like gimmicks. They like functional and, ultimately, relatively pedestrian products, because they want things that fucking WORK.
>In your logic everyone would wear plain white shirtsNo, an ACTUAL comparison would be people wearing half a fucking t-shirt. How many people do you see walking around wearing half a t-shirt? I guess on the upside it weighs half as much, right? (Although like you say later in your post, "a lefty fork isn't lighter than an equally rigid twin fork", which literally makes the Lefty useless even for the only thing that would have made it useful). But on the downside it makes you cold and you look like an idiot, so it's not very practical, so no one wears half-t-shirts.
By your logic everybody rides a plain white bike. But they don't. Bikes come not only in tons of different colours and finishes, but tons of different designs too.
>There are none, only slight disadvantages.No advantages, right, got it. Just like I thought.
