Strengths:    Good price for features compared to similar forks from competitors I looked at (Rock Shox, Marzocchi).

Weaknesses:    The metal used for the lockout remote is fairly cheap/brittle. The clamp broke at the hinge just by opening it during installation. Called X-fusion and they sent a replacement no questions asked that arrived in 3 days. The service guy said the broken remote might stay on even though it is broken and it does so now I have a backup. :)

Bottom Line:   
I wanted an affordable fork with air and lockout with remote at a price that was less than my original bike purchase...these forks are just that. I've only gone on a couple of rides but so far they seem superior to the RST's. The lockout works very well on those uphill climbs and the downhill descents seem much less hairy...these forks eat up the bumps very well.
