from Suffield, CtDate Reviewed: June 21, 2003
Strengths: Great travel, knurled upper tubes, good dampening, when the internals have the proper spring weight and oil and all, it is plenty adjustable. Good customer serviceWeaknesses: no frame bumpers stock, long break in period, decals come off easyBottom Line: I really like this fork. I'm by no means a big guy (5'10" 150 lbs), probably why they don't flex for me. They have preformed extremely well, in fact better each time I ride, now that they're broken in. I had one small problem in which the folks at risse used a threadlock that failed, resulting in a few bent rotors because i didnt catch it. (now easily fixed).
Buy this fork if you are a downhiller or freerider who doesn't weigh a lot that is looking for a lightweight, but durable fork. The break in period seems a little long, but towards the end of it, you'll really feel the quality of the travel improve signifigantly. Great fork (for us little fellas, phil (270lbs) wont like it.) great value.
