Rockshox Reba 2008. These are 85mm, don't know if you're looking for more travel. I used to have the 100mm version of these which i was very impressed with. Lovely smooth travel, good predictable handling and durable. www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=25122

The one i have alreasdy is 85-130mm but it no longer feel comfortable over bumps etc plus with my tyres there is very little clearnece so something with Motion Control damping may be useful?

I ve a pair of fox float rlc 4 sale. Few marks here and there but in 100% working order. Been serviced by mojo at the start of the year. They r 130mm travel, fixed but you can lock them out. Really plush. More than welcome 2 have a look if you r interested.

i've got rockshox recons on my bike, 85-130mm travel i really like them, really nice to be able to adjust travel during a ride and they can cope with any sort of trail riding, did fine at glentress.
