Strengths:
Stiff yet plush, easy set up, lockout works great, looks cool!

Similar Products Used:
RST P.O.S. Rock Shock
Bike Setup:
Trek 4300 with nothing stock.
Bottom Line:
This is a great shock for cross country. Soaks up the bumps and drops without feeling mushy or bouncy. Solid and steers like a rigid fork with no noticeable flex. Set it up and forget it. I'm a 195 lb. rider and bought the heavy spring for it but never had to install it because this fork works so well. The lockout takes the bob out of uphill churns but still gives you 20mm. Would buy another if this one ever wears out.

Strengths:
32mm inner legs, great design, dynamic lockout (locks the fork but the sag works 20mm), rebound adjust
Weaknesses:
none
Similar Products Used:
RST 156P ...lol
Bike Setup:
Kellys Scorpio 2004 + Magura Odur 85mm
Bottom Line:
I own the 85mm fork for about a month and I can't say a bad word about it. It's massive and works great. It really gives the 85mm as prommised. When I compare Odur with my old RST fork it is like riding 1 meter above ground...
