Fox Talas 32 - Adjustable travel down to 100mm, will give the best all mountain experience but are the most expensive.
Fox Float 32 - Lightest air fork around. I have a pair and with lockout they are simply awesome.
Fox Vanilla 32 - Coil versions of the other 2. The cheapest and plushest.

Rockshox Revelation - Similar to Pikes but lighter and more XC orientated.
And of course pikes.

Those i'd say are the best 5. Although i've noticed you posted this in the FR/SS section. So if you want more of a big hitter you get get Fox 36's or Lyriks and get the travel lowered, or if its adjustable keep it at 140mm. Hope this helps Wink

I thought by calling it 140mm forks he meant forks that are 140mm?!?! So yer:
Lyriks - 160mm
Marzocchi 66 ATA - 160mm
Rockshox Totem - 180mm
Fox 36's - 160mm

But as i said you can get them lowered if you're gonna be doing more gnarly stuff on them! It depends, what bike is it for/ what sort of riding do you do?

Get the older 66ATA's if you get them and they wind down to 140mm. Mate has them on his jackal and they are shweet.

All of those forks can be lowered by a chimp. And that is why I listed them.
