Overlord Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Wanted to know if there is anyone out there that can direct me to a website with comparisons between my Fox vanilla R and other Fox forks?I am interested in buying a new bike and it already has a Fox Float 120RL fitted. Would it be better to keep the Float on or should I fit my Vanilla R(2006)?
Racer X Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 No question about it, keep the new fork, it is lighter, has both rebound and lock out adjustments. It is also an air fork which means that it has much more adjustability from the compression side of things.For more info check out: http://www.mtbr.com/ Just out of inetest, what bike are you planning on buying.
Overlord Posted October 20, 2007 Author Posted October 20, 2007 Thanx for the reply Racer X! Thinking of buying something between a Free Ride and a DH bike, thus I thought the Vanilla R might have been a good choice as it has a bit more travel than the Float 120RL... Bikes I'm looking at: Giant Reign 3; Specialized StumpJumper FSR COMP
Racer X Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 If you can stretch your budget to 19.9k you must check out the NEW Merida AM 3000. It has got a full 2008 XT drivtrain, full FSA componentary and and fox suspension with a FOX TALAS 140, (I think), RL fork, check the bike out on the Merida website, it is wicked.
