Strengths: dual chamber - plenty of adjust options
progressive characteristics - gentle and responsible when you want and efficient and tough when you need
lightweight - mine weights only1680g with pop-lock
white looks good!Weaknesses: it isn't as stiff as it should be - under high load it wants to bend under the frame. Front wheel is quite lousy with 9mm axle. 29er wheels are demanding.
can be tricky to adjust pressures for beginners
fragile finish - every contact with obstacles on your route results with damage of varnish.Bottom Line: Very plushy and precision response, great usage of 100mm travel, this is the fork you can rely on. one of recommended fork in this price range
Price Paid:
$400.00

Strengths: weight, absorption, rebound, lockoutWeaknesses: nonBottom Line: came on my 2012 Giant anthem x 29er. Plays a major role in why the bike rides so amazing. Soaks up all the hits with ease but takes all the bounce out of climbing. A superior fork with no problems. Never had a problem with Rock Shox while, I've had issues with Fox fork seals in the past.

Strengths: Light, dual chamber air, easy to adjustWeaknesses: none so farBottom Line: I love this fork! This was coming from using a Dart 3 and its like night and day. The Reba RL is very easily adjustable by adding air, and the rebound adjustment makes really noticeable changes in the handling. The lockout works really well with only a small amount of bob. A+ So far.
Favorite Trail: Lebanon Hills, MN
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month
