heyllo chaps, well I have just snaped my 10th pair of rigid forks, and since my street riding is becoming alot better, I thought I would get a sus fork for my bike, and its been awhile since I rode a sus fork, so im not sure whats good now adays, Im looking for travel below 100mm, maybe 85.

Cheers for any help!

Johny!

Not really. Alot of hard street riders have wrecked the internals of the argyles because their to complicated for their intended use. It's not like street riders actualy need compression ajustments and an air spring. Also 100mm is to much travel for street, especialy for a guy that's coming from a ridged fork.

Personaly I would go for the 08 goldlable, simple, cheap, super light and strong. What more could you ask for? Also they're really easy to lower if 80mm is to much for you.

I was using a set of pace forks, then I snaped them, so I thought Im not paying out loads for another, pair if they snap so easily. Then i got my self a pair of Identiti's(cant spell the name,lol)
they cracked, then I started use trials rigids they lasted longer and they were cheap.
