from coventry englandDate Reviewed: October 18, 2009
Strengths: smooth controlled travel with no harsh bottom out,very easy 2 change from 85-130 mm at the turn of a dial. the poploc lock out is great and makes the fork fully ridged at the flick of a switch. great range of damping on the rebound dial. all in all a fantastic trail fork. i love it, cant be faulted.Weaknesses: nothing really, it does everything its ment 2 a great trail/xc fork that can take a lot of punishment.Bottom Line: this fork is great, i use it on 85mm locked out 4 my ride 2 work and ive unlocked it and set the travel up 2 the full 130mm then blasted down the side of mount snowdon with no probs. its strong light(ish) predictably and no nonsense. a brillaint bit of kit.
Favorite Trail: anything that takes balls

Strengths: Adjustable travel with the turn of a knob, compression adjustment with "lock out", smooth plush travel, and responsive.Weaknesses: I guess the weight could be a weakness if you care about that kind of stuff.Bottom Line: I got a great deal on this fork from JensonUSA's parking lot sale. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. My ride feels so much better. Soft and cushy!

Strengths: Stiff, confidence-inspiring, plush and light. I thought the Pop-Loc was gonna be useless but I can't really live without it now...Weaknesses: QR instead of thru-axle? Can't think of any, really. Massive upgrade from the 2008 model though.Bottom Line: Awesome. If you ever see one on sale for a reasonable price, don't hesitate. I have yet to challenge something this can't handle. Compared to a lot of my friend's forks, too, this is a 'midrange' gem. You really don't need to drink the Fox Kool-aid.
