$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. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$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 | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$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. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$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. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$550.00 | | Purchased At: | Cycleworks | | Strengths: | Light adjustable stiff. Spring Rate is excellent. Poploc lockout. | | Weaknesses: | maintenance intensive I suppose but so is my wife. Could always be stiffer but thats not really an issue. Oh and MADE IN TAIWAN. Dammit Jim!! | | Similar Products Used: | Manitou R7 ( not a bad fork) No lockout though, Fox F80 RLT Manitou Black Platinum. | | Bike Setup: | Fourstroke 03 Avid juicies, SRAM X9 and so on. | | Bottom Line: | Excellent fork with lots of adjustability, Lock out is great good spring rate. ramps up nicely on compression. stiff enough for me @155 pounds in riding kit. All the features of the Fox but cheaper and better. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
