Hi guys,
I have possibility of replacing current Lyrik 170mm on my enduro bike with new ZEB ultimate Charger 3 or FOX38 or FOX36 2023.
In local bike shop (they sell just bikes) I have credit note of 150EUR, they dont wont to give me back this amount instead they offer me for really good price new ZEB Charger 3 or FOX38 or FOX36 2023. All three for the same price, so ZEB and Fox 2023 for the same price. I do not care that Fox is more expensive but I am only focus on fork performance.

Have anybody some experience with new forks and which one would you choose if you were in my position ?
I read good and bad things about both forks (Zeb is harsh on hands, charger 3 is bad, buttercup is fake, HSC is not usefull etc. Fox is cracking, service is expensive, etc.). But I wont some users experience.

So which one to choose, since my only possibility to get something from my money is to choose one fork ? I have no energy to fight with shoop for this amount.
I use bike also for long rides, whole days rides with a lot of climbing and downhill on all sorts of terain, easy and hard, slow and fast. I also like to feel safe and confident on my bike, since I have some lack of lack of technique.
Thanks.

I have found both the zeb and the 36 to be excellent. Haven’t tried a 38. If I were choosing for a 170mm fork- I’d go zeb.
