from Milford, MA Date Reviewed: August 15, 2010 Strengths: Tim said it best: It takes the shock off your hands for small bumps. The adjustable preload is very strong for a cheap fork. They have dual seals - an inner protected by a boot that snaps off for easy cleaning. They have brake mounts for both disk and standard. Oh, and they'll hold you over until you save enough for a new pair of real suspension forks. Good starter shock if you find them cheap (ok, super-cheap). Weaknesses: When you get up to speed on some of the harder, rougher trails it IS like a pogo stick because it can't keep up - and the compression adjustment knob adjusts between hard and harder. It is impossible to tune to match any rear shocks unless you like a super-stiff ride. I don't remember my old pair of RockShox seals leaking this bad. Wiping off dirt covered grease from the forks is part of the daily routine after a good ride. 75MM of travel? Doesn't feel like it. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Quarry Run Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Purchased At: Came equipped on bik Similar Products Used: Old pair of Rockshox on an old hardtail I used to ride in the 90's Bike Setup: Stock, set up for my body weight...
