Strengths: great looks,
very stiff feel yet still gets those small bumps,
rebound works,
rebound knob can be removed,
very smooth with no noise like zocchies
THEY ARENT MANITOU
light? compared to my dj2Weaknesses: well erm....they are a tad floppy but still stiff enuff
and i have had them 3 days did a 360 and landed awkward now they have a click on compression. i might have moved something in the internals but a warranty check will inform me of what it is and have it fixeed
its not major i could live with it but im a fuss pot every thing has to be quiet but my freewheel....
yer says solo air but i cant find the air valve....
what else... oh to be fussy seals leave ugly marks on the nice shiny stanchions but HA!
the rider i suppose..... lol
Bottom Line: GREAT light fork pretty strong and versatile when i work out where the solo air is......
clean crisp look
Strong brand
we'll see how their warranty holds up
good compression feel definently has progressive travel
BUTTER SMOOTH! hard hitting and small bump sensitive
good on the bad wrists
maxle is soooo simple
i did get over $200 off the price so who can complain
overall 4 chillis bcos they have gained a simple fault

Strengths: it is pretty stiff, the preload is so nice and it comes with the x-stiff spring(perfect for dirt)Weaknesses: i think the steerer is too thin and it's not reinforced like the pike(hope it doesen't bend)Bottom Line: it's way much better than lots of forks that are loose on the market.it's ok right from the factory.hope the steerer doesn't bend or break.i'll be back with more info!you can buy it, it's great!
