Strengths:
its light, though its not 4.6lbs (its 5lbs) its still pretty light, its nice and stiff and the gold looks pretty dope, and the travel is really nice desipte the stiffnes
Weaknesses:
the grind bolt is stupid and the rebound doesnt do much and im kinda worried that it will snap like the gold labels of the past
Similar Products Used:
Argyle 302, 318, 409, Marzocchi Dj1,2
Bike Setup:
2008 norco 250 with gold label
Bottom Line:
i really like the fork, it replaced a rockshock argyle 302 and feels way better. though it doesnt have the compression and lock out like other high end dj forks, u really dont need it. it was pretty cheap too. i really like the reverse arch for foot jams and its stiff enough not to take away my energy when pedaling but still give cushion on landings. Id strongly recomend the fork to anyone
