from Sydney, NSW, Australia Date Reviewed: May 7, 2005 Strengths: I used the air version. No need for special shock pumps, you can just pump it up with a schraeder valve tyre pump!Air preload is fully adjustable, run it low psi for dh, run it high for hucks and since it doesn't require a shock pump, you can do it on the trail whenever you want. Nice, stiff, little short travel fork. I liked it a lot, but.... Weaknesses: it didn't react to sudden heavy forces directed to the front end, as though it was like a rigid fork, examples of this was when going back down on a wheelie, it just goes "booosh". I'm assuming air forks dont perform as well as coil. This was accually quite mysterious because it took drops and jumps pretty well. Also, it was a bit too linear for my liking but that can be changed by fiddling with the size of the air chamber thingy.. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 6 months Purchased At: Temporary fork swap off a mate
