from Traverse City Date Reviewed: December 28, 1999 Strengths: The fork is light weight, easy to service and the spring rate is good Weaknesses: Weak as hell! If bent the sliders twice since i've owened it and they constantly twist in the crowns. The dampener had a free bleed adjuster. A clicker would have made things easier.

from Traverse City, MI Date Reviewed: December 9, 1999 Strengths: Very light fork for a downhill fork, good dampening system, wide range of different spring rate available. Weaknesses: It's weak. The fork has bent twice since I have owened it. It will twist easily. Also White Bros. dose not have very promt service so you kind of have to stock parts for there forks if you don't want to miss a race.
