High Intensity Bike
Strengths:
Very strong and confidence inspiring. Looks awesome. Not afraid to hit drops 3-4 feet with my hardtail. Makes you do crazy things.
08' Hardrock
Saint rear derailleur, Saint rear hub
Bottom Line:
Great fork for the money. As soon as I installed it, my bike felt completely new and ready to handle anything.What's crazy is this fork weighs less than my Manitou Six which was only 80mm. Has a steel steerer tube for extra strength. It is 100mm travel not 120mm, just to correct the other reviewer. 32mm stanchions are a nice touch. Would pick Marzocchi over Rock Shox any day.
