| Duration Product Used: | 6 months |
| Purchased At: | merlin uk |
| Strengths: | good stable design very smooth easy to set up |
| Weaknesses: | none for the actual fork but the remote lockout lever is very poor which stickes open and crushes the cable, best to remove it, or pay to have a fork mounted lever fitted |
| Bottom Line: | good fork just get fork mounted lock out lever |

| FavoriteTrail: | Glentress |
| Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month |
| Purchased At: | Merlin Cycles, Leyland, Lancs, UK |
| Strengths: | Straight from box plushness, Loads of platform and rebound adjustment, Albert Select remote lock-out |
| Weaknesses: | Still a niche brand. Although with time that should change. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Fox Vanilla RL |
| Bike Setup: | Hardtail XC |
| Bottom Line: | Magura have really come on leaps and bounds from their old "Rond" style forks. They will deserve the plaudits that they will aquire for these new breed of Magura forks. Fantastically designed, well built forks from the German brake miesters. These forks will suit XC trail and singletrack riders and hard core huckers alike. For more aggresive riders and freeriders see the Wotan. |
