Strengths:    The bike path.

Weaknesses:    Real mountain bike riding.

Bottom Line:   
I didn't ride this fork offroad, but a couple of friends did. I'm including their response to the 5 chili review you have that is currently the only review listed.

Fred said; Is this guy for real? Did he ride the fork? The fork I rode had no damping and was downright scary for hard offroad riding when you got to the end of the travel at speed. We ordered heavier spring/MCU kits, but never
received them. My guess is that they haven't developed them yet.
