there is nothing wrong with a boxxer 888 fox 40 or travis... its a lot of personal opinion. Also one thing that you have to take into account when you have a fork is how well u have it set up. If you set up a fork poorly, then it doesnt matter how nice the internals are. Also trying not to get off topic i love the demo 8, its a beauty of a bike and i am jealous. i wish i had one.

that's coming from a guy that rides a foes?
boxxers are the racing fork right now, foxes are way too bulky and have a tendency to blow through seals while manitou's on the other hand have internals that auto-destruct themselves after 1-2 months of riding... 888s are just fat heavy freeride forks...

and if you managed to destroy boxxers then maybe you should revise your riding style and ride less like a hack

i agree with that all the way the deff r the best race fork out there but like i said before i would trust that fork sending it off a 20 ft drop same with the 40s i dont like them period... but i dont race i ride freeride so u would never see me ride boxxers or 40s is anything id have the totem or the amazing 888

Did you buy your demo off a kid by the name of dakota perhaps?

and guys, tone down on the manitou hate. its a perfectly good company, you just need to look after your shit most of the time and maybe it wont break... stances aside haha.

To the OP...

10/10 mate - It's an awesome rig!

I'm picking up my new (to me) 05 Demo 8 tonight from the bike shop after getting some new shit fitted so I'll post pics over the weekend.

Dunno if its as nice as yours though.

Hy, i will rate it with 10. I am planning to buy the same bike, with one difference: It has 888's. What do you think about it?

Have a pleasant day, Matjaz
