Meh, doesn't matter if it's plush or not, still waiting for mine to break so I can get something more reliable.

He has got a point tbf tho, rst arnt the best but they connect your stem to the wheel so cant complain really and it's ideal for a low end bike cos it'll be bought by a beginner so it should see much abuse and if you give someone who's new to bikes a marzocchi dj 1 it's be expensive cos you won't know how to fix it! Start cheap, work you way up, you'll spoil it for yourself if you get the best parts straight away

The rst launch is a budget fork yet people slate it like it's some big brand fork,it was never meant to compete with the big brands even though back in the day rst were better than rockshox at one point.

Treat the fork as a means to an ends for BEGINNERS and the fork is fine,but your also misinformed if you think it ain't plush as it feels damn good for what it is and the rebound does a good job of what it was meant for.

I know rst but not so much on fox other than bob fox sold the brand,so it's highly possible that they could be.
