DR ◣◢ Posted September 16, 2012 Share My money is going to the Reba. 50g more than the SID for a cheaper and less finicky fork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 16, 2012 Share Which REBA the RL or RLT? RLT. You want the extra adjustability. If you're lookin at the fox and sid, thethe RLT Ti will be the one to go for. Lightweight, plush as hell, remote lockout and better ito longevity than the Sid.

DR ◣◢ Posted September 16, 2012 Share Yip. RLT all the way. 1564g for the 29er according to the SRAM site. Ive got the race version on my trail bike. Might be a 26er but its awesome. Had the travel conversion to 120mm done and it transformed the form. Plush as hell and very responsive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do YOU need remote lock-out for? hehehe.... please tell me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 16, 2012 Share What do YOU need remote lock-out for? hehehe.... please tell me I don't. I took it off on the first week i had the Reba! Put it back on when i sold it. Found it pointless, really. And yeah, I far prefer the adjustability that my REV has for compression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheV Posted September 16, 2012 Share I don't. I took it off on the first week i had the Reba! Put it back on when i sold it. Found it pointless, really. And yeah, I far prefer the adjustability that my REV has for compression. That's what I thought, in my opinion, not that it counts for much, but a remote lock-out is rubbish... waste of time Edit... I will admit that it's more tricky and time consuming to set/adjust a FOX to be "just-right", i'm forever toying with mine.. but when you do get it dialed, then it's simply awesome. Reba is much easier to get "dialed" Edited September 16, 2012 by TheV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reba is much easier to get "dialed" Yeah. I have a mate who is rueing the purchase of a bike with an F32 RL. he had a Revelation RLT Ti on his previous bike... And the lack of adjustability, and just plain feel, of the Fox (bottom of the range, remember) made him swear off FOX goodies forevermore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
