The Xeno fork is an RST Space.


Right you work for RST, so can you explain to me the deal with society? Same forks/internals? UK rights and change the trading name? ISON distribution bought out RST aftermarket in the UK?

Are you sure? Really doesnt have much to do with Identiti..there just another brand under "Ison Distribution" who would be the owners of the fork.

There marketting strategy is totally different and they claim they are NOT Rsts...

They ARE Space forks. Ison also owns Identity. There is no claim that they are not RST forks. Again, they bought some forks from RST to sell on their complete bikes.
