Submitted by Jon a Downhiller from Somerset
Date Reviewed: August 7, 2000
Duration Product Used:6 months
Strengths:Smooth, plush travel and a chunky style.
Good rebound, which can be adjusted externally.
Reasonably light, its easy to pick the front of the bike up for jumps and drop-offs.
Weaknesses:Can be a bit to soft at times, no external compression adjustment, so its quite hard to make them harder, you have to change the springs/oil wieght.
Similar Products Used:RST HI5 (No where near as good as MX6)
Shockworks DH1
Bike Setup:MuddyFox ultimate frame, Fox Vanilla RC shock, Hope discs.
Downhill only!
Bottom Line:Good fork, reasonably cheap and a pleasure to ride.
They can take quite a beating and be fine.
One problem is the lack of Stratos service centers in the south west.
