Strengths: Weight, decently stiff, looksWeaknesses: Only decently stiff, no compression adjustmentBottom Line: I like this fork. It was a budget decision, but a huge upgrade from my Dart. I have noticed some flex coming from it, and I while I have found a sweet spot in air pressure, I would like a bit more compression damping. Great fork for mid range, I have just out grown it at 200+lbs

Strengths: Adjustability, light weight and price!
I have never upgraded folks before and I wish I had done it earlier. Once dialed in it does everything you'd expect it to and has you going back for more.Weaknesses: None thus farBottom Line: For you Weekend Warriors on a budget out there....
If you want the feel of a high end fork without breaking the bank, Rock Shox has done it here!

Strengths: Lighter weight, Solo air design for easier tuning, Compression lockout, Simple and easy rebound tuning.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: Incredible shock. Super plush ride, and very responsive with proper rebound tuning. Lockout works great when I need it, and the Motion Control helps to soak up some of the bumps if I leave the lockout engaged. And that "Phssshhh" sound it makes when taking bumps... that's the sound of awesome!

Strengths: Light, responsive, flushness, stiff & perfect rebound adjustmentWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: An awesome fork, coming from a Suntour Epicon for 2 years, I really felt the big difference in terms of responsiveness, flushness and excellent rebound adjustment. Great value for the money. Highly recommended for riders who's looking for a good fork with a mid-level price.

Strengths: plush, adjustable, great value for the money, looks, simplicity, easy to setup, quality metal parts no plastic (except for the air cap)Weaknesses: for the price noneBottom Line: For the money this fork can't be beat
it's nice and light mine weight in at 3.7 lbs
super plush i weight in at 240lbs, i can set preload(air) perfectly without sacrificing smoothness, which was a major issue with my exr pro air
motion controle works very well,
the fork is exactly what i was looking for, coming from a 105mm fork , having that extra 15mm adds some confidence going downhill.
Bottom of the line if your looking for a good fork and don't wanna spend more than 500$ including shipping taxes this is the fork to get, unless of course you catch a sale on a reba :p..
if you purchase this fork you won't regret it
