Absolutly no flex like everyone says inveted forks have and they dont smoth on high speed bumps by inverted desighn.

Strengths: Super stiff, super plush, soaks up everything, no fade even after some massive Alpine runs, easy to service, easy to tweak, the piggy back takes the damping control to a new level the fork felt so much more sophisticated than my previous DH-2 fork, and they are beautifully built.Weaknesses: The fork is big so needs a big frame to match it.Bottom Line: Not a cheap option but doesn't feel it either, almost feel like you could ride down the hill on the front wheel alone. This fork is for those that are looking for an investment, they don't need sending off for tuning, just spend some time playing around with the oil and air and they work a treat.

Strengths: Easy to adjust externally, compression, rebound, nitrogen pressure, air assist.
Precise steering with no perceptable flex.
Ease of maintenance yet rairly needs it.Weaknesses: Looks a little wimpy but took a 35' drop four times in one weekend. No prob.Bottom Line: This is the best fork ever! No flex because of 8.5" of overlap (stanchions to outer leg). Smooth and adjustable for any riding style in minutes. Goes from race quick action to huck off dumb stuff with just a few pounds of air pressure. Knerled legs and stronger crowns than last years with more overlap, this fork is stiff as can be for a inverted fork.
If you are a racer or a hard core rider this fork will blow you away. If all you do is race, there are lighter forks but it gives confedance to go fast and hit stuff hard without throwing you off line by flexing off a bump or rotating under hard braking. Buy em up good stuff!

Strengths: eats everything, hard to bottom-out, plush workWeaknesses: not so strong-looking lower legs (32 mm is too small for real confidence)Bottom Line: It is the best fork ever. Plush work plus bottoming resistance makes a very good mix. This fork really gives feeling of front wheel being clued to the ground. Performance/price mix is the best on a market. But this White Brothers' product is more on a DH racing side rather than reckless dropping. So if you drop like Bender buy SuperMonster from Marzocchi.
