from Rocklin, CA, USA Date Reviewed: April 30, 2001 Strengths: Price, weight, travel, smoothness, fork leg protectors, easy adjustment. Weaknesses: Standard springs are too weak (probably even for your "standard" 150lb rider). Would rather have allen bolt for 20mm axle, instead of wrench. Neg spring in one leg means legs aren't equal length when wheel not installed - makes putting the wheel in harder. As I'm sure would happen with any inverted design, when compressed a lot, your brake line can bend into the spokes - just have to zip-tie it creatively to avoid that. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Murderer's Gulch Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $999.00 Purchased At: Kalo MTB Similar Products Used: Monster T, Z1 QR20 5" Bike Setup: GT DHi Race, 8" Hayes, XTR, etc.
