from Manchester, UK Date Reviewed: May 18, 2010 Strengths: Looks good, light. A great idea without the tedious wind up and down if you know you like 160 as your travel preference. Weaknesses: I'm amazed there aren't more negative reviews (and soo few in general). Have mtbr culled a few due to excessive bad language. See the bottom line Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Any Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Similar Products Used: Pike (hydrolocked/seals blew), Lyrik coil (Moco failed) and other brands. Bike Setup: Blur4x.

from Darlington, UK Date Reviewed: May 22, 2009 Strengths: Very plush with loads of adjustment. 1.5" steerer and 20mm Maxle keep it really stiff. Straight line most things with confidence. Weaknesses: Finish on legs nowhere near as good as that on Fox Forx. Looks hand painted to me. After 6 rides they lost an inch of travel. Still worked fine, but worrying and disappointing all the same. Just had the air can replaced under warranty, so we'll see what happens over the next few rides.

from Auckland Date Reviewed: April 11, 2008 Strengths: I have found this an amazing fork, It feels like it has more travel than 160mm,I have just gotten rid of my tripple clamp Mazzochi forks and the Lyrik seems just as stiff with way better damping, and a fantastic range of adustment, I have had them converted to coil, and have the extra heavy spring installed and they are perfect for me. Mission control is fantasic. Weaknesses: None found so far, But I have heard DO NOT over tighten the maxle they can be difficult to remove if you do this. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Billy T Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $600.00 Purchased At: Internet Similar Products Used: Mazzochi Z1, Jnr T, Boxxer 170mm, Bike Setup: Foes Inferno, X9, Hope mono M4, and some more Hope bling.

from Denver, CO Date Reviewed: June 23, 2007 Strengths: Very stiff. soft, plush air system. Weaknesses: 2 step system is being retooled due to numerious problems. On my fork, i lost 13mm of travel in the first 20 minutes on it. Sram repaired the problem under warranty but i had to cover the $30 shipping to Chicago. 6 weeks later the 2 step had another problem, in the low setting the fork gradually raised up to the high setting. Another $30 and back to Sram in Chicago. This time they swapped out the 2 step for a U Turn spring. This is with the promise to put the new 2 step in when they get it dialed in. The slow speed compresion dial doesn't seem to do much. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: white ranch Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $950.00 Purchased At: collins bike, denver Similar Products Used: Talas 32, Maverick DUC Bike Setup: 07 Intense 6.6, XT, Formuala, DT Swiss 1750 wheels.

from tucson, arizona, USA Date Reviewed: April 17, 2007 Strengths: This has so many adjustments you could really dial in the fork. The 2-step is really nice allowing you to adjust with a flick of a knob. The fork is stout and stiff. Maxle is amazing product, easier than a standard QR. Weaknesses: This has so many adjustments you could really dial out the fork. Adjustments went from normal to ridiculous. I used one click of rebound and 2 clicks of high and low speed compression which left about 11 clicks of rebound and 14 clicks of compression unused. Adjustments seemed to be overdialed for the intended purpose of the fork. ADjustment knobs should have a realistic range of adjustments on them.
