I was thinking of upgrading my fork on my entry level Giant 29er. I've been switching back and forth between the original spring fork and a rigid, decided I like a suspension fork better for local singletrack and fire roads. I was looking at the Suntour upgrade program and saw the Raidon, looks like a good fork for the price. Anyone have any experience with these and what are your thoughts. Thanks

What's your budget and fork travel?

The Raidon is currently selling for $300; if you have a Suntour coil fork on your Giant, you can get a $100 discount and get the fork for $200. That's what I did with a different bike than yours. It's fine, I'm happy with the fork, I went from 100mm to 120mm and no issues. Performance is better but it's not going to turn water into wine, it's still an air fork on a cheap bike, just keep that in mind.
