The Velvet rides like a Fox. It's really smooth! It's strong, but it IS an XC-specific fork. It's kinda expensive, but it's very light (3.8 pounds).

it looks high for 80mm, I'm looking seriously towards one, are the dropouts sketchy? i heard a story of someones Fox's snapping and caused serious damage

The drop-outs are just like any xc fork. I haven't heard of anyone having problems with them, but I did have a buddy snap a Velvet in half landing a backflip.
