Strengths: NoneWeaknesses: Too soft and no form of adjusments. The Lower Part the fork where the bolts for the 20mm axel go snapped off and the weight is ridiculous.Bottom Line: Not a great buy and the weight and lack of stiffness was disappointing.

Strengths: Reasonably lightweight, very stiff, they don't flex, cro mo steerer, seals leak but last longer, good dampening, can upgrade dampening to TPC+ sherman internals.Weaknesses: like I said above, the seals do leak.Bottom Line: These are great forks. anyone who says otherwise is dumb. mine even with the fluid flow dampening never bottomed out. I go very big on this fork. have bent the steerer in the past, but that beats having an aluminum steerer just suddenly snap like my friends pike. the dampening is the same as the goldlabel, its better dampening than the marzocchi DJ forks. I actually took mine down whistler. I got bored and rode my hardtail for a day up there. I didn't hold back on the fork, everything from crank it up to clown shoes to A-Line. If you're a smooth rider, and dont case stuff and abuse your bike, this fork will last you a long time. I regularly maintain my forks. this one is simple, cheap and works very well. I highly recommend.

Strengths: noneWeaknesses: Tons of problems the fork sucks i had to replace the springs twice which cost $80 each time. I am an beggining/intermediate rider and i don't ride to hard though it seems to bottom out almost every time.Bottom Line: Don't buy it unless you are a very easy going or light rider
