203 Travis triple Ti,Travis 180 SC, Lyrick, Z150 et al
Bike Setup:
Socom, Boxxer, Ti spring Revox, 729's w CK and Fun bolts, Mich 16 DH
Bottom Line:
I thought my Travis was plenty good enuff for me, as I don't really pin it riding DH. But the first ride on the Boxxer fork made me smile. "Like Butta" was coined for this fork. Impacts disappear no matter how rapidly the terrain comes at you nor how big the rocks are, this thing just floats across it all. Truly happy with this purchase. Yeah, I guess the Boxxer IS as good as all the reviewers claim.

This is probably the best value fork on the market. It is as light as any other coil fork or lighter, and has an awesome feel. It`s durable and does not need a lot os service.Great Fork!
