I had this fork for about 3 months now, one of the best fork I've ever had, soo smooth, soooooo light. I ride mainly DJ/Street/Park/4X And Some Light DH. I highly recommend this fork.
good forks for XC and AM. Light, look sexy and I got mine for £200 - bargain. However they were alittle soft for me, even when pumped up.
lite and still robust. works great and its easy to set up the adjustments!! and teh wheel changeing goes realy fast cause of the maxle system!!!
Really nice fork; especially like stiffness adjustment and thru axel. Plus it looks damn good on a bike.

| Damping | Motion Control |
Damping - The process of absorbing the energy of impacts transmitted through the forks or rear shock during the compression stroke, and absorbing the energy of the spring during the rebound stroke.
|
| DropOut Options | Maxle | |
| Compression | Low speed compression to 'Lock' with external Floodgate |
Compression - This is the damping circuit that absorbs the compression energy force on the damper. Compression damping is used to adjust how quickly a fork or rear shock compresses when hitting a bump, and is adjustable on some products. When compression damping is too soft, this condition allows most of the available travel to be used without attaining control of the wheel. When it's adjusted too firmly, the wheel will jump or "dance" about when hitting small bumps, again failing to gain control of the wheel.
