Submitted by James McCabe a Racer from B-Water
Date Reviewed: July 1, 2006
Favorite Trail:CR baby
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Purchased At:www.highgearcyclery.com
Strengths:none
Weaknesses:ALOT
Similar Products Used:Better Stuff
Bottom Line:This fork is by far the worst fork I have ever owned. It broke within days after buying my bike. There is plastic parts inside that break if too much pressure is used, or if the section one is riding is too rough.

It is flexy, and does not hold air well. I did not like this fork, nor did I like how answer delt with the problem. DO NOT BUY THIS FORK, THERE IS PLENTY ON THE MARKET FOR MUCH BETTER PRICES AND DEALS!!!!

Favorite Trail:Caliraya & Cavinti Trails
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $110.00
Purchased At:Endurance Bikeshop
Strengths:Light, Strong, and fine Geometry. Price is reasonable.
Weaknesses:Steerer tube is very short. Braking time period is long.
Similar Products Used:Axel Super, Minute one, and Marz Bombers
Bike Setup:NRS Three Cross Country with LX 05 Hydro Group set
Bottom Line:THis fork is intended for purely on Cross Country only ( tolerable on mild trails ) and is not recommended for heavy drops. You will appreciate this fork on its intended use. Its very light, air bound, fluid flow, adjustable rebound. A nice choice for those who love to race XC and the price is reasonable.
