urbanshooter is right ,as long as your bands are fixed to the forks properly tapered bands fail 99.99 percent of the time at the pouch.get an ajustable ruler that has a sixty mm rotar cuter that slides along the top edge of the ruler, and tapered band sets are no problem to make.or a plastic template,all can be bought on line and are not that exspensive. all so you get more bands tapered than straight cut.out of your rubber.its good fun trying different tapers.and in the long run a lot cheaper than buying band sets.
