Strengths: This fork is one of the most fluid coil based forks I have ever used, it is plush and there is no harsh bottom out feel. The compression and rebound control works easily and effectively. The compression can easily be changed on the fly. This fork also has one of the largest travel adjusts I have used, 115 to 160. The $600 price tag was also appealing, other forks with the same specs don't come near that price and reviews for the more expensive forks do not seem to be any better.Weaknesses: The weight would be the only weakness, possibly lack of a lock out feature but if you need that feature, this is probably not the fork for you anyway.Bottom Line: The bottom line is that this fork is versatile:
Travel at 115 with compression up - urban street riding
Travel at 160 softened - freeride fork with lots of strength
As long as you are a fair sized rider, the extra weight this fork brings along will not impede your riding. I am about 210, and my bike weighs somewhere around 50lbs so its perfect for freeriding but not so good for urban. Overall for the price, you can make this fork work will any style of riding.
