Simply amazing , if you no anything you'll know the same these are one if not the best fork on the market only problem is a fork of this quality comes at a hefty price but if you can get a well looked after 2nd hand set it will be worth it
has a more solid feeling than the boxxer and the marzzochi wasn't even part of this. this fork feels the most plush out of any other fork, if you dont't like that feeling then dont get this fork get the boxxer and if you dont like the boxxer dont ride a down hill bike becaue at that point your just dumb
This is the fork! Way more tuneability than I need for sure. The break in time for this fork is really worth waiting for. Once you get it running smoothly and adjusted to where you are using all of the travel the feel is unbeatable. I don't know if it's the Kashima or just the new damper design but I can't be convinced that anything else can be as smooth and stiff.
fork has been part of my downhill package for 5 years now, most dependable, strong, sturdy and most of all in my case confidence building piece of equipment I have on my bike, handles downhill terrain like a knife through butter, every improvement made over the past 4 years have been well worth the price.
Smooth move if you ever buy this fork. i use it on the VERY easy lines of the redbull rampage but not in competition. it can take much more though
This product gives a smooth ride not changes in stiffness mid travel. and lots of adjustment. never had a problem holy recommend.
used by many Downhill riders this is the best shock money can buy so much travel and looks absoloutley amazing on any bike
This is for me one of the bests forks to profesionals and fox and his products are gret to downhilling or freeriding

| Weight | 3090g | |
| Color Options | Black Diamond, White | |
| Travel | 203mm |
Travel - refers to the distance the wheel can move in respect to the frame. Typically measured in millimeters, most forks range from 80 to 203 mm of travel
|
| Spring | Coil | |
| Crown | Dual | |
| Body Type | Magnesium | |
| Rebound | External dial |
Rebound - is how quick your fork returns to a fully extended position after being compressed. Almost all after-market forks feature external rebound adjustment for easy fine tuning.

| Stanchion material | Kashima Coat | |
| Steer Tube | 1.125 | |
| Damping | FIT |
Damping - The process of absorbing the energy of impacts transmitted through the forks or rear shock during the compression stroke, and absorbing the energy of the spring during the rebound stroke.
|
| DropOut Options | 20mm | |
| Compression | Low speed, High speed compression |
Compression - This is the damping circuit that absorbs the compression energy force on the damper. Compression damping is used to adjust how quickly a fork or rear shock compresses when hitting a bump, and is adjustable on some products. When compression damping is too soft, this condition allows most of the available travel to be used without attaining control of the wheel. When it's adjusted too firmly, the wheel will jump or "dance" about when hitting small bumps, again failing to gain control of the wheel.
