Strengths: It's cheap, Weight is ok, Good shock absorbtion, from medium to big bumps.Weaknesses: It flexes after a while.Bottom Line: This suspention fork is good value for money, and it works very well. I haven't had any problems with it, and I ride quite a lot. I can recomend it for Cross Country riders, but only light riders. Bigger riders should choose a Judy or simmilar.
