'GREAT FORKS FOR FREERIDING OR DH'

Strengths:
Quality make, strong stanchions, stiff, reliable, adjustable ride height, removable/replacable brace, easy to maintain.

Weaknesses:
Weight, brace too close to anything more than 2.1 tyre, difficult to adjust rebound.

Overall:
Good forks, now available quite cheaply, easy to get parts from a very dependable company. Provides a smooth but wicked ride!

'WEIRD WHEEL!'

Strengths:
seems strong
no spokes to true

Weaknesses:
quite heavy
hard to fit in dropouts
new shape seems inefficient

Overall:
I run a marzocchi jr T wheel on the front of my bike and amit to having problems with it. I had to ziptie the wheel to my dropout, and then the problems really started.....
I couldnt work out how to put brakes on it. but the main problem is the rectangular shape, it simply dosent work as well as round wheels.

That said, it never went out of true, and the preload/rebound adjusters are really fun to play with.

;-) (ONLY HAVIN A LAFF, I THINK THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE IN THE FORK CATAGORY!!!!???)
