from Dublin, Ireland Date Reviewed: February 10, 2009 Strengths: Simple, strong FAIRLY supple fork. Pretty much nothing to go wrong in them. Weaknesses: Dire lack of adjustment ability. All you can do is adjust air pressures and more than likely have oil piss all over you through the shraeder valves while you do so.

from Graham WA Date Reviewed: April 19, 2006 Strengths: [Oil an Coil] Incredibly well built fork. This thing even held itself together, somehow, for months of pretty hardcore riding when I unwittingly removed the brake bosses (for looks). Note: on the model I have the V-brake bosses are supposedly integral to the fork and connect the arch to the legs. Weaknesses: did I mention that the brake bosses hold this thing togeter Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $200.00 Purchased At: Came with frame Similar Products Used: Manitou, Rock Shox, RST Bike Setup: 03 Rocky Mountain Edge everything upgraded

from Sydney Date Reviewed: July 18, 2003 Strengths: This fork is absolutely great. Its weight is considerably light when aspects such as performance and strength are combined. This fork feels very very light on the trails and in the air. It has the ability to adjust to different types or rides, and its feel on the trails are killer. The ratio of weight to performance is un describable Weaknesses: None - great product, their older forks perform much better than the newer forks. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $500.00 Purchased At: private sale Similar Products Used: Manitau Mars, Manitau x-vert, TRIALED dj1 (heavy, heavy, bad quality much rather go the z5 or z4 series because of its weight and the way it feels) Bike Setup: Stinky Frame with my own components, the z4's make this bike!!
