I would personaly pick the 66! it can be used for FR and DH no problem! On the other hand, the SUPER T is a good fork also.. DEPENDING ON the year. Ive owned 2 supers and 1 66 before.
You have better adjustments with the 66, then the Super T!

But my Fingers point towards the 66 for sure.

The 66 will have a better dampening system than the Super T. You will have to specify what year and model you're thinking of. I'd take a 66RC2x '06/'07 or RC3 '08 any day before touching a Super T. But if you're thinking of a newer Super T vs 66 '05, I'd rethink it.

Granted the Super T is a double-crown fork. It will give you a (very rarely used) slightly better turning radius, and it will probably be stiffer. I have no idea, I've never tried a Super T. But what I do know is, my 66 is plenty strong for all my 165lbs can throw at it. Axel-to-crown length will differ from year to year too, so you'll have to specify that.

Conclusion:

'05 66 vs '06 Super T = Super T
'06-'08 66 vs any Super T = 66

66 is the far superior fork, larger stantions, same amount of travel, and better damping (on the better 66's)

I've had 01-04 super t's and 05/06 66s and the 66's blew them away.

The Super t USED to be high end, but now its like one step above the DOT, where as 66 is right at the top beside the 888

The super T is basically the updated version of the JR T!

yeah there both good, I'd personally go for the 66, it opens up more possibilities, it LOOKS lighter dont quote me on that, and its a better quality fork
