    Favoriate Trail:amasa back
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Strengths:not as buttery as a z1 for climbing
    The best thing about this fork is theirs finally a 4 inch fork thats just as nice for the uphills as the downhills. its very stiff and I love it for dual slalom.
    Weaknesses:not as buttery as a z1 for downhill
    Similar Products Used:z1cr, and z2 dc118, x fly, x vert.
    Bike Setup:new cpc racing fs bike with 4.5" of travel full bike weight about 25 1/2 xtr chris king synchros
    Bottom Line:If your looking for a fork with a good price good looks plush ride but not to mushy on the climbs dont search any further. if you want good travel without making your head angle 69 degrees. or if you want a smooth fork thats still sprintable for dual slalom then 5 chilis for white bros!
