    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $400.00
    Purchased At:ebay
    Strengths:light, adjustable
    Weaknesses:little flexy, very bad paint job
    Similar Products Used:manitou, marzocchi / dont remember types/
    Bike Setup:Klein attitude, Xt and LX, Xt 770 crank, Nobby Nic, American classic wheels, Bontrager bars, ritchey PRO pedals
    Bottom Line:Even though there are some cons and dislikes about this fork, they dont bother me at all, so I still rate it 5 and 5. It is very adjustable and dependable doesnt loose air. No promblems at all. It is a little flexy, but what can you expect from this size. If you compare it to other forks, it is a dwarf. I would say the paint job done by Rock Shox is really bad. The paint doesnt stick onto the metal. I had too many marks on it after one year. I had no marks on my manitou and marzocchi forks.

    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $700.00
    Purchased At:Evans UK
    Strengths:So light
    Weaknesses:Not the compression alteration knob on the pop lock busted twice now
    Bike Setup:S Works carbon HT DT Swiss wheels XTR Group set Hope Mono Mini brakes
    Bottom Line:In terms of racing with this fork I've had no probs I weight 60k so I don't think I'd feel any flex that these are supposed to suffer from. I've used this in lanzarote coming down the tabiesque mountain and it handled excellently so this can be used in more than just xc races also long as you've got weight on your side

    Date Reviewed: April 29, 2007
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $500.00
    Purchased At:LBS
    Strengths:Light. Infinte adjustment
    Weaknesses:A little flexy and expensive
    Similar Products Used:Judy SL, Mag 21 SL
    Bike Setup:'99 Ibis Mojo (steel is real!) SID Team, '07 XTR, Race Face Deus XC, Thomson Elite stem and seatpost
    Bottom Line:Super light. The same as the world cup without all the carbon to mess up. A great cross-country fork. Sure it's a little flexy but show another fork that weighs 3lbs and doesn't flex and I'll but it. It takes a little to set up but once it's dialed it's sweet. I was a little sketch on the lockout, but after using it I'm in love.

    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $350.00
    Strengths:Super light!King of Climbing!
    Weaknesses:A few flexible for me,because I use RS_reba before.
    Similar Products Used:RS_reba,FOX F80rlt
    Bike Setup:XT kit
    Bottom Line:Very good fork for XC, light, easy adjust, i like it. Motion control works well,and it's uesfull. Some people say it's too flexy, but i haven't noticed it so far, meybe I'm light, 58KG. SID is really more sensitive than REBA. Although SID looks soft, but it's good enough for me, so I choose SID. If your weight is more than 65KG, choose REBA.
