Bike Setup:

Bottom Line:
Im super impressed with these forks. I have used many different types of DH forks and these feel the best by FAR. My only real concern is longevity as I have heard that previous year models suffered from problems. But like I said at this point I love them, coming off this years Boxxer World Cups to these is a revelation, if they last I think I've found my race forks for the next couple of seasons at least.
If a set come your way BUY 'em they're sweet forks!
