from York Date Reviewed: December 6, 2007 Strengths: Everything - this fork is the best I have used and is the epitome of high priced forks. Set up was easy and it does exactly what it is supposed to, no flaws, no quirks, no having to mess around with lockouts/rebound adjusments on the trail, it works flawlessly on everything from stairs, to hucks, steep climbs and everything in between! Weaknesses: It only has two flaws, both negligable compared to the final result: The first is cost, the second it one of the top caps is made of plastic! It's like buying a picasso and putting it in a cheap frame, why have that plastic crap! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Dalby Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $700.00 Purchased At: Bike29 Similar Products Used: Only one product in a similar league which was the Fox F80x, no contest this wins Bike Setup: Rip9
