If you're considering an Argyle, you shouldn't be considering a 32. The two are pretty much mutually exclusive. Get a Pike. A 32 Vanilla is $390 online, but apparently can't be lowered.

Uhh the talas (adjusting travel others won't really work) is about 700 dollars. Don't get another marzocchi either get the argyle (31Cool or go with a 32 talas. I highley suggest a 32 talas. For seat get a macneil seatpost and seat.

What are you talking about? Online, the Talas is nowhere near $700. The Argyle and 32 are NOT even close to being in the same market segment, in price, strength or weight.

Yeah Mitch chubey just got one for his P.3. He rides skatepark and dirtjumps all the time. It's got the weight of really light fork but is strong enough to withstand huge slopestyle drops.

Talas 32 is a good idea, they are running the 15mm thru for 09 but Pike 454 air is 4.7lbs for about the same price or maybe a bit less, thats what Im getting for my dj/street but for my AM bike im getting the 36 TALAS both good forks though, you may also look into rims to lose a bit more weight
