Mojoman Posted March 10, 2010 Share Sorry to hijack a bit here, why is the Suntour Mag32 not really for sale anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostface Posted March 10, 2010 Share I believe it is an "OEM" fork. It's only maunfactured for complete bikes market. It's not availible as an aftermarket fork. It's not even in the catalouge or on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted March 10, 2010 Share I have a 2005 Mongoose Tyax Comp and absolutely no problems yet. I have really put this bike through its paces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weight Weenie Posted March 10, 2010 Share My 2c, if the bike feels right, just take it and ride it. Nothing will improve your riding more than a bike that fits you and your riding style, that just feels right. You WILL ride better My old bike was a 21'', way too big and was very difficult for me to move around, needless to say my medium bike feels perfect and flickable.

wesley_r Posted March 10, 2010 Share well, the Mongoose arrived today at my LBS, going down tomorrow to compare it back to back to the Giant. judging by my height (1.83m) and what just about every sales guy has told me, I should be a Large.

Headshot Posted March 10, 2010 Share If you coulld stretch your budget to R8 - R10K, you'd be able to get a far better bike component wise. Look at the Schwinn Moab range - ali stanchioned RS forks and XT mix components - They are being discounted in CT at the moment. Nothing wrong with Suntour, but there's no comparison weight or performance with a Fox. You are getting a steel stanchioned coil sprung fork without rebound control and limited pre load adjustment. Ghost Face - do you carry different springs for the Suntour XCM V2 HLO - my G/friend has one and the spring rate is too stiff for her weight?

wesley_r Posted March 13, 2010 Share Picked up my Tyax Super today Took it for a ride late Saturday afternoon at magic forest (or majik forest or whatever ) Really enjoying this bike - it's a far cry from what I've been riding and makes the experience MUCH more enjoyable! both climbing and coming down the trails are miles better. Bought at Gecko Cycles for a good deal - great advice and service from Bradley! Thanks for all the advice guys http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo314/th3_w3s/DSC00717.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesley_r Posted March 22, 2010 Share too true however, I am used to riding with that expectation... here is my OTHER ride http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo314/th3_w3s/DSC00540.jpg Unfortunately I can't really justify the money to bling both, so the 'goose will have to stay relatively stock for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
