from Bacolod City, Philippines Date Reviewed: November 23, 2009 Strengths: After the initial break in period, my fork has been very plush & responsive. Excellent stiffness. Extremely tunable. I own the 2007 Dual Air 80mm variety & it has never bottomed out even on tough trails. Extremely low maintenance. Weaknesses: Not ultralight, but for the price its fairly decent tipping the scales at about 4lbs. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $189.00 Purchased At: Jenson USA Bike Setup: 2009 Giant XTC Team. 2007 Marzocchi MX Pro 80mm. Shimano SLX Components.

from Orange County, Ca Date Reviewed: July 20, 2009 Strengths: Great, reliable, predictable fork for the money. I keep trying to talk myself into buying a much higher-end fork, but always sop myself because this fork does everything I need it to do for the type of riding (XC) that I do. Even with only 85mm of travel it has handled an single track that I have thrown at it. I have never bottomed it out as some other reviewers have mentioned, but that's also because I don't take many drops doing the XC riding that I prefer. Basically, you can't beat this fork at this price point. Weaknesses: No lock out, but that was also my choice not to buy the LO version. As other reviewers have noted, the first 5-10mm of travel are a bit sticky. But once you get past that this fork is very plush; it tracks very well. It's heavy, but what do you expect for $275? Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Santa Ana mtns, Chino Hills, Whiting Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $275.00 Purchased At: Blue Sky Similar Products Used: Manitou Minute & quick demos of buddies' bikes with Fox & Rock Shox forks. Bike Setup: '06 Kona Kikapu

from Zagreb, Croatia Date Reviewed: September 21, 2007 Strengths: No bottoming, smooth when broken in, less then 2 kg, quality, elegant looks. A lot cheaper that the ETA version. Weaknesses: Could be a bit lighter with an alloy crown and steerer tube. No lockout, it bobs during heavy out of the seat mashing up the hill. But climbing in the seat is fine, I don't miss it then at all, you roll over roots and stuff easier with some suspension. No real weaknesses actually.

from San Diego, CA Date Reviewed: September 12, 2007 Strengths: Adjustability for such an inexpensive fork is rather good; rebound damping and (air) spring pre-load. Weaknesses: It feels a bit "sticky" sometimes and although it has provisions for V-brakes, good luck finding the pivots to actually make them work.
