Pros: - dual air
- lightweight
- very durable
- pro pedal lockout
- allows you to stick the line you chose no matter how rough

Cons: Have not found any as of yet

Recommendation: I LOVE this fork. It came stock on my Giant Anthem. I can set it and forget it as I do not have to keep adding air to it even between seasons it holds its air. This fork has taken some serious abuse thruought some of the most technical trails in New England, mosty southern NH. It has seen thousands of miles and still operates as it did the first ride out of the bike shop!

Pros: Ride this fork from time to time on the shop bike. Great adjustability from the dual air spring and the damping is what you expect from Rockshox.

Recommendation: Great fork for 26 and 29 inch varieties. Stiffer than the SID but not as light.

Pros: It's incredible I can't believe the comfort and power

Recommendation: I will recommend this fork to any pro mountain biker ;)

Pros: fully adjustable, lateral rigidity with good vertical absorbtion, poploc is great for long smooth climbs . Can take a hard hit.

Cons: none

Recommendation: got it on sale after reading reviews of it. Went out and tried it and it was super smooth. Didnt notice and lateral flex. Very responsive to any bumps. Rebound wasnt overwhelming after a hard bump. Awesome fork with no complaints.

Pros: Did not think I would use the pop/lock but do

Cons: None so far

Recommendation: never thought i would buy a Rock Sox. sram bought em, which I like. Got it on a blow out and have found it tracks well, will need some time to see how it holds up on the bouncy bike which does not get much use

Pros: Weight, looks, the ability to soak up any bump with ease, strength.

Cons: Lack of u-turn, have to break it open to increase/decrease travel.

Recommendation: This is a great XC fork. It doesn't weigh much for a 32mm stanchion fork, and it is rigid as hell. The Reba can take a beating and never blink. It has all the adjustments you need (except external travel) and works in nearly every situation. The lockout and floodgate features work well. This fork is easy to fall in love with and will treat you well.
