Strengths: really smooth travel, great adjustibility, not tooo expensiveWeaknesses: not much, has some flex for it.Bottom Line: This is a great fork for the money for freeride and stuff like that, the adjustibility is awesome but there is some flex to it so it may not be the best for hard core downhill but still a really nice fork.

Strengths: Great fork with plush travel. You can now get a retro compression kit that will lock out during climbs.Weaknesses: Too heavy for climbing, not stiff enough for downhilling.Bottom Line: I would consider this fork a freeride fork. Works well for an all around use. Bobs too much for climbs and too flexy for just downhilling. Good all around fork. Not for everyone. Most people will have to switch out the springs right away.
Favorite Trail: One w/ no climbing
Duration Product Used: 1 Year

Bottom Line:
This fork is a blast to ride. It's 5 inches of travel are super plush, and it's lighter than one of those big daul crown forks. Do not buy this fork for pure downhilling, or pure cross country. It's too flexy for DH and too heavy for XC, but absolutely perfect for super gnarly B.C. singletrack.
