Just because it's cheap doesn't mean it won't have the same RockShox performance as the rest! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: March 24, 2001 | | Duration Product Used: | More than 3 years | | Strengths: | xc fork for a budget | | Weaknesses: | lateral wag, compression adjustments don't do a thing, not enough travel even w/ 80mm | | Bottom Line: | This fork proved to bea very good performer. I've had it since 97 and recently started to do trials. Nice and stiff in its stroke so i don't lose any power doin hops. not enough travel to soak up big chatter bumps or even little ones. Good if you're doin light xc w/o racing. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

shimano acera x crankset, fr deraileur, and bb
the fork was used with origional setup.
| | Bottom Line: | Just so you know, I actually own a judy xc.;, but this is the closest I could get.
this fork is very good in general. now, 3 years from when it was made, it is still an AWSOME fork, and very light(3.6 pounds with orginal setup), and needs almaost zero maintenance.however, there is one problem with the actual absorbation, which is that the fork has this little gap between when the inner legs are actually pushing down on the MCUs and when the damping pulls them in, and when you are going over small, close bumps, such as a rocky fire roads, the fork RESIDES in this gap and it is very annoying. this is why, even though it never bounces on uphills, it needs a lockout.also, do not take this on downhill rides. it only has 65 mm of travel, and I an sure the only resaon this does not bottom out on me with moderate XC use is because I weigh 120 lbs and it came with fairly stiff springs. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
