Strengths: Cheap, at only 170 quid now, but i got mine for 100 quid, which was well worth it. U-turn, helps between jumping and some big drops. Lower it for the jumping, and then i can extend it for the drops as and when i want. And strong, done a few nose dives and they have head out nicely... Damn plush...
Weaknesses: 80mm is an arse, too hard to get 100mm No preload adjusting
Overall: 80mm is annoying, but its useful when i dont want to bob up and down on the road, but then, its too hard to get to 100mm, but a marker pen will fix that... Excellent forks, and worth the money. Just the preload, which is annoying, as mine are too soft, and a new spring will empty my pockets for good :(
Strengths: Wont bend like my old rim! Looks cool in black Light Strong!
Weaknesses: Metal tyre levers scratched all my paint :(
Overall: Even tho i have F219 Disks (there isnt one here yet) Their pretty much the same but without the breaking surface. Anyway, for the 20 quid, what a bargin! light, strong, and really nice looking. Look no further, get a 219 or 519!
Strengths: Wont move, unlike my old grips which fell off every 5 minutes. Very easy to get off, undo the bolts and they slide off.
Weaknesses: The grip wears down too easily. Ive had mine 2 months, and already need to replace them at 10 quid a time.
Overall: Very grippy, and easy to get off - no nail varnish or glue needed, but they come at a price, of 5 quid a month, but i ride my bike 6 days out of 7
Weaknesses: They barely fitted my frame. They rubbed at my chainstays... but my rim was bent, but still, i only had 1mm to play with in a 2.4 inch gap...
Overall: Their worth the money if you can get a pair for 20 quid... from virtually anywhere...
