Thank you mate!
That would be a very great idea!
I would not mind reviewing any one of my products I use in the same respect as I did in this video
because I believe in all the parts I select for my ride!
I would be stoked if this videos depicts the fork as a purchasable item rather than the image people have of suntour!
Thank you very much!
as for the price it was 40000¥ 1/3 the price of my 36 180mm.
The fox is an awesome fork but this fork seems to ride identically.
But, long term testing is in need!
RideOn mate!

Woohooo! As for an air fork that thing seems to sit in the travel quite well! Would be great if BOS sent you their DeVille fork which is said to be the most stable yet plush air fork on the planet.
Apart from that, great vid as usual! good riding as well. Thanks for taking the time to do that vis and for sharing. You're awesome mate!

Thank you mate!
Im stoked to hear your pleasant remarks.
The fork sits very well and absorbs impacts with diligent care.
I raised the oil levels in the damper and the air chamber which give a better progressive rate while preventing a harsh bottom out.
The fork is very stable and in my book a winner!
Now, the long term test of the forks abilities is where it will shine or bite the dust!
Please tell BOS to send me a fork, ahhahahhahah
RideOn mate!

I just hope there are no "issooS" with it as I just ordered it from US. There aren't any in Europe available yet as far as I know. But my friend saw it's bullocks inside on some RS press camp and said, unlike CBros, it's as simple inside as an airshock.

should be great!
Simplicity is key for anything, like you always state in your comments.
Too much unnecessary technology and materials used to detour us from what is real.
The reverb here in Japan is not yet come around and I meant to say should be popular here in Japan.
Im also liking the look the x-fusion's seat post as well!
Reverb your rear! hahhahahahha

If you scroll down on this page www.reuberbike.de you will find the words SR Suntour Tuning Base, they've been optimizing Suntour forks for years.

It's the shop where Gino once worked and where Birgit bought her Black Market and her Rotwild. I bought my Alutech and my Stevens there. We found the shop when we were looking for someone to repair Birgit's cheap Suntour fork, which she had ruined at the Winterberg bike park.

Great, now Gino is on his own, very cool!
One thing bad about suntour is they makes lots of products that no would consider buying but are great for complete bikes!
RidEOn!

Well, Birgit's fork was really bad and it could not be repaired. Suntour made a lot of mistakes in the past and now they have to struggle to get the reputation they deserve!

Nice work and riding! I think the problem with the Suntour's (at least out here in the US) is that they get paired up with the very lowend bikes and they use the lowest (cheapest) Suntour model and so people just assume that the Suntour name is just a cheap brand when in fact they've been around for many years.
When I rode a lot of XC many (many many) years ago, Suntour's were on many of the elite/race XC bikes. The problem was not many LBS stocked them because the RockShox Judy's and Manitou Vert/Vert-R were the forks to have.
I have to admit that I've never really kept up with Suntour and so this is the first time I've seen or even heard of this model in their lineup. I'm planning to build up a true trail/AM bike soon (something I can Super-D also) and will keep an eye on this fork.
Some questions: any idea on the weight? How hard was it to lower? How does it climb?

BTW, how much do these forks go for?
