from Colorado Springs, CO Date Reviewed: June 16, 2005 Strengths: Dude this fork is great, its so burly and weighs a lot less than it looks, I do huge road gaps on this things and it still holds up great, I even did a fifteen foot drop and it did great! I don't know what these guys mean by stiction, this thing is plush, not as plush as a supe T but its cheaper and used. I guess I got lucky and got the good one, because this fork rocks and I plan on it lasting another 2 years. Weaknesses: The seals did wear, but after two years what do you expect? All I did was send it in to White Brothers and have them replaced and then tons of other stuff installed just in case. The bolt to get the wheel off stripped too, but it was easy to fix. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $400.00 Purchased At: My Teacher Similar Products Used: Boxxer, Monster T, Super T, Bike Setup: Santa Cruz Bullit

from Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858 Date Reviewed: October 2, 2001 Strengths: Great fork, great price, light weight. If you have the gold 2000 fork invest in the new crowns, because they're much stiffer and stronger. Invest in THE fork guards. They are much cheaper than new stanchions. Weaknesses: Some stiction when new but just keep riding and they will break in.

Weaknesses: Negative spring in damper side leg makes it kind of a pain to reinstall the axle when putting the wheel back on (this is a pretty minor complaint though). Everything else is great though.
