from Manchester (UK) Date Reviewed: February 26, 2002 Strengths: SMOOOOOTH...even before they had bedded in they were taking outalmost everything I could throw at them, and now, it just takes everything out. They give no brake flutter (unlike my old white bros.), and they are solid as hell. Weaknesses: Bed in time...sure it'd be nice if all products would work perfect out of the box, but it ain't gonna happen!! Also, I had a little trouble fitting my CONEX head plug into the steel steerer (the id of the tube was slightly undersize), so I had to modify my steel CONEX with the claws off my ally one to get it to fit. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Delemere Forest Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $265.00 Purchased At: Harry Halls Cycles (Manchester) Similar Products Used: White bros DC118, manitou magnum R.

from Hades Date Reviewed: October 17, 2001 Strengths: Now I believe what others have said all along...try Marzocchi. Although I haven't h ad it very long, the first ride was awesome. No squeaky monkey noises from the fork! The fork I bought is actually a Z1 Wedge(110-130" travel) fewer adjustment knobs than others but has preload adj. the Judy Race I had always made weird noises (squeaks & clicks)had it checked by my LBS, they said it's fine. Yeah the fork absorbs bumps but instead of a "fine" fork I'll take the spectacular Marzocchi Z1! Weaknesses: will let y'all know if anything happens even remotely out of the ordinary Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $269.00 Purchased At: universalcycles.com Similar Products Used: Softride suspension stem, Manitou III(busted the crown in 4 spots, '96 Rockshox DH 80mm, '98 Judy T2, '00 Judy Race Bike Setup: Santa Cruz Heckler with lx, grip shift, Marz Z1, 747s, Fox Vanilla Coil (awesome shock/bulletproof/idiot proof)
