Strengths: See weaknessWeaknesses: Fork came with my Trek Mamba. Gap between dropouts is 98.5mm. Went back to the bike shop and measured fork on another bike, also 98.5mm. Fork is too narrow to fit on bike mount without grinding 1.5mm off mount. I talked to Rockshox tech support who said the tolerance is 98-102mm. Tech told me to give him SN, which is supposed to be on back of head. No SN there. I'm calling BS on that. Cheap Chinese crap.Bottom Line: See weakness

Strengths: Stiff, plush, very cool looking.Weaknesses: Weight if any.Bottom Line: I love this fork! Was a little concerned about putting a 100mm travel fork on my 1999 bike, which came with a Rockshox Jett C, elastomer sprung fork, with about 2" of travel, but this fork feels great! It's 1/2 to 1 pound heavier than my old fork but the performance is very much worth it! They look really cool too in black.

Strengths: Love rockshox, this fork has nice 32mm sanctions. Nice lock out so you can make this fork stiff, feels almost fully rigid. Very plush and smooth nice rebound which is adjustable. 100mm travel is good for what i do and there is plenty of room for nice size tires. awesome fork v brake compatible. Great price, I was hsocked it was so cheap!Weaknesses: A little heavy not too bad though. A hell of a lot lighter than my stock Suntour.Bottom Line: Great fork. I recommend for the money you cant beat it. does good on rocks and potholes or w.e. good xc light mountain fork

Strengths: Bike ridden is a Diamondback HT, trails are very tree rooty with pretty much no "drops". I have ridden for a couple of years and needed a new fork bad, seals were blown in my old one. So put the XC 32 on and set spring pre-load on around medium and went riding. Fork is stiff, bombs over roots with no surprises, keeps track on trail with no washouts, and generally does a good job. Fork let me rip through root sections with good confidence.Weaknesses: none that i can think ofBottom Line: I think its a good buy for the price, might not be the lightest but is stiff and handles rough stuff with ease.
