This is a great upgrade for the MC29er, better handling, lighter and stiffer. I used the Dirty Dog Skull cable guides to solve the cable issue. I also like that part of the purchase goes to IMBA.

Bottom Line:
This is a great rigid fork. I got it at the low 2 pound range and the ride is just a blast! The fork doesnt shudder when I brake hard and steering is very crisp. I just wish this fork had cable guides for a more clean look so I settled for a ziptie. I got the black and it looks very nice, no frills look.
