Submitted by bret a Weekend Warrior from singapore
Date Reviewed: May 31, 2004
Favorite Trail:BT loop
Duration Product Used:6 months
Strengths:Easy, not much maintenance required except to clean off the mud :) set n forget..
Weaknesses:travel is not long enough, need covers
Bike Setup:Stinky 9, Nokia 2.3, etc etc
Bottom Line:Its a nice fork, However I've got a scratch on the stanchions now and need to get it fixed - it would be good if Rockshox had some kind of protection for this - there is a lot of area exposed.
I'm also looking at the upgrade, despite what the previous posted said.. I can bottom it whenever I feel like it :).. I'd like something with a longer travel

Submitted by Logan a Weekend Warrior from ScottsValley, CA, US
Date Reviewed: January 3, 2004
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $800.00
Purchased At:local bike shop
Strengths:Looks awesome. Very Smooth! Holds up real good. First few inches are extremely plush but is nearly impossible to bottom out.
Weaknesses:Takes so long to break in! Seals seem to leak a little bit. (nothing serious)
Similar Products Used:Jr. T, Monster T., Boxxer World Cup, Sherman break out
Bike Setup:2002 Bighit nearly fully custom. Only stock hubs!
Bottom Line:Great fork once it is worn in. Put a soft spring in one side and a hard spring in the other for optimal performance when racing.
