Hi, thinking about upgrading my forks on my Trek hard tail could any one recommend any good ones around the £200 max mark.
Have been looking at the Rock Shox Recon 351 Coil U-Turn & Poploc 2008
£179.99 at chain reaction cycles not a bad buy.

As you have disc brakes you don;t need the mounts for V brakes on the fork!

Iwan has a set of rebas on his trek and he loves them, cos they take a beating and are super light

I'm looking at ordering my new forks this weekend but not to sure which Rock Shock model to go with, Don't mind upping the price over the £200 mark if its worth the extra cash. Short list so far, Rockshox Reba SL Rock Shox Reba Race Dual Air 2008 Rock Shox Revelation 426 Dual Air / or coil spring model Not if its worth going for the U turn models as I'm using them on a hard tail bike. can any one tell me the difference between internal & external floodgates models. any advise please chaps |

can any one tell me the difference between internal & external floodgates models. External has a dial on top of the fork to set the floodgate Internal you have to remove the cap from the top of the fork and adjust the floodgate with the rebound adjuster knob or an allen key. Pointless if you ask me, as you'd only really ever adjust the floodgate once when you first setup for fork. |
