from Arizona Date Reviewed: January 28, 2001 Strengths: I weigh around 190pds - and w/a full camelback probably around 200pds. This fork is very stiff and light. Believe me when you are riding on the rocks the last thing you want is for your fork to flex and for you to byte it ! The maintenance is very easy on this fork. It's easy to take apart and easy to put back together. For those of you experiencing alot of stiction on this fork try putting the shim washers under the negative return springs. You will be amazed at the improvement in the fork when it comes to handling the small bumps. Also, unlike the folks below I haven't had any major problems w/the air cartridges. Yes air cartridges leak air but I have found that they don't leak enough air over the course of a ride to make any difference (1 to 2 p.s.i. at most). Weaknesses: - You have to check the cartridge air pressure before every ride. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Schultz Creek - Little Bear Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $450.00 Purchased At: Bike Shop Similar Products Used: Rocksux Judy SL, Manitou Sx-Flex ti Bike Setup: Titus MotoLite with all sorts of nice hardware.

from DENVER Date Reviewed: February 29, 2000 Weaknesses: Pricey & 3.6LBS. Requires too much maintenance. The manual recommends cleaning every 30 hours or less depending on the riding conditions, which is about once a week during riding season. It never holds air for extended periods. It has lost air on more than 4 occasions on a ride less than 10 miles long. It isn't adustable on the fly. Before every ride you have to check the air to know how much pressure you have. The nipples are made of aluminum, which is already seeing wear. The gage on the pump (MFR?) inteferes with the head tube & cables when I put it on increasing the likihood of damaging the threads. Besides that its just fine. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: GUTS Duration Product Used: 3 months Similar Products Used: Scott, Manitou, Rock Shox, Marizochhi Bike Setup: Turner
