from Washougal Wa. Date Reviewed: June 12, 2001 Strengths: Rigid, steers great and have never bottomed them even with light springs. I just keep fresh grease in them and spray silicon on the stantions before every ride and they just keep going year after year. Weaknesses: Seals came pre blown from the factory. Service was quick for me but now there is a clunck in the first five mm. of travel that nobody can fix. It also came full of metal shavings. One ride and I have to send the catrige out and clean and regrease. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: any deep woods Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $500.00 Purchased At: White Bros. Bike Setup: Eight year old san andreas, still goin strong
