from AZ Date Reviewed: April 23, 2007 Strengths: This fork is really stiff and plush. Looks cool too! 90 degree travel adjust is awesome. Weaknesses: Cost is high, but you tend to get what you pay for in my opinion. A quick release axle like the lyric and totem have would be great. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: National Duration Product Used: 3 months Purchased At: South Mountain Cycles Similar Products Used: Nothing too similar, but I had a manitou minute 1 before this and before that I had a really old marz. bomber. Bike Setup: Santa Cruz heckler mostly raceface stuff and x0 parts. Hadley and king hubs with mavic 823 and 819 rims. 5th element rear shock for now.

from boulder ,colorado Date Reviewed: April 18, 2007 Strengths: Felt super smooth for the first few rides,extremely stiff and responsive, very plush at high speed small bump chatter Weaknesses: not exactly sure if it came broken and I did not notice at first but after one hard day in moab it has a serious topping out problem. very loud "ping" noise when riding in seated position and as soon as I leave the ground for a drop. Also feels to a little to soft in the final part of its travel. dumps a little too easy Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: cowboy up, whole enchilada Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $460.00 Purchased At: EP form Similar Products Used: nixon. worked solid for 2 seasons. rode it real hard, took 6 foot drops with ease, but deffinetly not the same overall plush ride.
