from Tamworth, UK Date Reviewed: October 23, 2007 Strengths: Light weight, strength, pretty stiff and above all - simple! I bought these to replace some All Mountain 1's that kept breaking (issues with the TST cartridge and the rebound as well) and took 7 weeks to repair! So I wanted something simple and these seemed to fit the bill. very plush as well and the bottom out is much smoother than on Marzocchi's - a gentle thud to let you know that you've gone through all the travel - not a loud crack as metal hits metal! Weaknesses: No 20mm axle option - about time Fox - not all of us want a 36 or can afford them! A 20mm 32 Van R would be perfect. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Anything dry, dusty and steep Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $300.00 Purchased At: Leisure lakes, Nottingham Similar Products Used: All sorts of Marzocchis (orig 96 z1's, 66's, 888's AM1's, Shivers, various other Z1's), Pikes (ick - not a good experiene), 05 Fox Van R's (ace forks that stood up to some serious punishement). Bike Setup: SC Chameleon, Saint brakes, Hone cranks, Sram X9 running gear, hope hubs/mavis rims, king headset, Easton finishing kit.
