Strengths: Very durable, ABSOLUTELY NO FLEX WHATSOEVER, not too many adjustments, smooth plush ride, strong as an ox, fairly lightweight, QR axle can be a pro and a con, Awesome, fast, inexpensive, and super good-looking. 38mm STANCHIONS!!Weaknesses: NONE! Stickers peel off, but does that really even matter?!
Many will say adjustability, but if there's less to break, then less will be broken, right? This fork is plenty adjustable!!!Bottom Line: This fork is soo burly and awesome! I've never felt so good on a bike. My previous Manitou ('05 minute) and Rock shock (crap) have nothing on this fork! They both used to shiver and vibrate during braking, causing me to feel very unstable, this fork barely bobs. In the past few months, I've managed to throw some pretty big hits at this fork, but the only results I got were that my old rims are a little weak! This fork would do fine for All-mountain or free-ride. BUY IT!!
Favorite Trail: Anything smooth and flowy!

Strengths: Definatly a very solid fork, absorbs almost anything you can throw at it. being 6'4" at 180llbs, I've taken some pretty good nose dives and didn't flip, due to the 150mm of awesome absorbtion.Weaknesses: Its on the heav side, about 5 llbsBottom Line: Definatly a solid, reliable fork to have for an all mountain rider. I myself will probly want to get a lighter fork sometime in the near future, but this one hasn't let me down yet.
Favorite Trail: yes
Duration Product Used: 1 Year
