well i got a good deal on this fork (550) but i needed another fork for my dob and im building the dob really burly and strong, not really bothering on weight. but the mob i want strong and light so i have a 32 float 15mm for this at my dads. it will drop 1-2 pounds hopefully

hahah wow, nice. i like 20mm over anything now that i have a velvet, ssuch a bad mistake on my part oh well. 15mm is better but id still rather have 20

ya, im never going back to qr, but 15mm doesnt seem to bad, its a super light fork and seems strong. the only thing i didnt like when i got it is that the steer tube was shorter than what he said so it will be a tight fit on the frame unless i get higher rise bars.
