Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Strengths:
Light pretty stiff hasnt blown up. yet
Weaknesses:
springs are a bit soft out of the box
Similar Products Used:
'04 dj2
Bike Setup:
Specialized p3
Bottom Line:
replaced dj2 with this to lighten it up. huge difference in weight, but still feels solid. springs are just s bit soft for me but Im used to DJ2. I weigh 170.
big upgrade. the front end feels soooo much lighter. sacrificing a little bit of strength but the ability to bunnyhop 50% higher and manual well is worth it. if youre sick of the heavy ass fork on your front end then ditch it and buy this.
