If this would feel anything like my frantik ( Im pretty sure it would) then I would get it. My frantik feels perfect with the totem.

kris-mk (Apr 7, 2011 at 20:33)

yeah, this felt great. I'll probably end up with a fox 36 180 in the not so near future though.

The fox's look sick as usual, but the totem turns heads. Everyone who doesnt ride, or guys on the xc bikes, can't believe how beefy it is.

kris-mk (Apr 7, 2011 at 20:37)

that's true. I don't know though, the totem didn't really jump out at me when i rode it (new ones might be better), felt pretty similar to my 66 other than the higher A-C height. (which was good) I liked it though. I got to briefly test one of the new foxes and it was damn plush. Only time will really tell though.

Ya I want to get some riding time on one of the 180mm series. My tote is by far the plushest fork I have ridden, Its just been rebuilt so that might be why. Either the fox's or totems, this thing is gonna shred.

kris-mk (Apr 7, 2011 at 20:48)

oh believe me, it does.

Last question lol. How is it for brake jack? They have a one piece swingarm right?

kris-mk (Apr 7, 2011 at 20:52)

nah, the chain stay is a single piece, then there's a pivot, then the axle and brake are on the seat stay, then it hooks up to the rocker link. From what I can tell the brake jack isn't bad, I didn't really notice any, but then again I've only ridden techy stuff once or twice on it so far.

Looks good with the totem.... if you need the 180mm and a slack angle ... like me! ;-)

looks a little to beefy for the hecktik imo

voltagerider (Feb 17, 2011 at 18:51)

I agree.

lower that fork brah then itll be sweet

kris-mk (Feb 17, 2011 at 20:14)

only reason I would replace the 66 is for 180mm travel

dsheffer (Feb 17, 2011 at 19:07)

why lower it. fork looks good on there

kris-mk (Mar 5, 2011 at 16:52)

yeah, it's off his old SXT that my friend bought

Go for the fox! I have a 36 van 180 and I love it!
