ok I decided to order a eriksen 29er hardtail now i need a fork for it. Iam 6 foot 6 and 325lbs just wondering what you guys think the best fork for my size might be.

White Brothers are very good, but what length fork do you want?

I'm 6'6", 260+ and looking at 5"+

So far, tops that I've come across is White Bros and Fox, no?

I've tried many.

Fox and WB are hard to beat in the plush dept.

I will venture a guess that you might be too heavy for the WB fluid series of forks. At 265, I felt like I sometimes overpowered the fork (I had a 135). But give Darek @ WB a call and see what he thinks.

I'd go with the Fox F29, but again a call to Fox would be in order. I'm guessing you want an 80mm.

I'm 275 and I personally love the Reba 29 and the Fox F29. Both are equally great forks.

I'm 275 and I personally love the Reba 29 and the Fox F29. Both are equally great forks.

You dont find flex issues with the Reba do you?? Im contemplating this fork simple because of the Lockout mode. If Fox had the lockout switch, It would be mine.

tora 318, as good as rebas but heavier and stiffer.

thanks for all the info guys i really like the fox but does anyone know if they make a through axle fork for a 29er. i know white brothers does but i kinda would like to try a fox.thanks

As a big guy myself, I would highly recommend a Thru Axle fork for torsional rigidity; I really really like it when the wheel immediately goes the direction that you turn the handelbars. :thumbsup:

TA means White Bros. or Manitou Absolute for now.
