Strengths: Looks to be identical to my Reba Race 29 and performs just as well. I know it is heavier w/ lower grade internals but this one came w/ the lockout switch setup and is painted flourescent baby poop green! No complaints to date but I have few real miles on it and it is barely broken in.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: I like how stout and maintenance-free my Reba has been so I hope this Recon shares the same characteristics. Great products.

Strengths: Smooth, supple and stiff.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: I love this fork. Set the sag and ride. Feels every bit as good as my fox forks. And a lot less expensive.

Strengths: Easy to adjust, set up and holds up well.Weaknesses: Rebound makes an air-sucking sound. Not really bothersome when you get rolling.Bottom Line: This was a budget build out of spare parts I had laying around. Bought the frame and fork together. They work well, its a fun trail bike to bomb around on! There may be better forks out there but this one works fine! Buy it if you are looking for a great value and don't need full adjustment. 5 value chilis for price and 4 overall cause its not high tech but is a great value.

Strengths: Smooth as butter like Rebas with good small bump compliance, actually can set it up stiffer and not seem to lose the small bump comfort unlike my recent Reba Race that was more finicky. Costs almost half of Reba Race.Weaknesses: Only weakness or trade off to a Reba Race is weight almost 1 pound heavier but still well under 5 pounds at 4.8Bottom Line: Recon Silver TK 29er Forks at just under $300 are by far the best value and really rival the 2010 Reba Race Forks I had at under a one pound weight penalty. They hold air perfectly and solo air set up seems to allow a stiffer ride for me with no noticable loss of small bump compliance unlike my previous Reba Race dual air costing 200 bucks more. Overall rating really is 4.5 with .5 weight penalty but will just give it a 5 for simplicity here.
