Wow, my man...you spend time in a-mb, and STILL bought a RSux? Happy Holidays 🙂

It blew out on fire road (what's a firebreak?)? Isn't the Psylo like a 5 inch FR fork now?

anyone care?

If my 2003 Psylo SL implodes, I too, would have to report it to the group so they can say, "told ya
so". Hopefully, this will not happen, and I get 'the one' that does not break.

I almost copied Barry and swapped the Psylo out for a Z1. I'm really kicking myself now even though
it was going to cost extra to do that. I was stretching the rationalisations and pushing my budget
buying a whole new bike at the time. Despite being a little hesistant, I thought I'd give the
Psylo's go and replace them if and when they fell apart. I wasn't betting that they'd last less than
5 or 6 weeks.

Quoted message said:

Here's one here: This is a wide, well used, smooth firebreak/access road that's been heavily used by
trail bikes but you get the idea. Most are overgrown, narrow, deeply rutted and often very steep
with pools of muddy water at the bottom as they follow the steep contours. They're lotsa fun and
claim more than their fair share of collarbones. You can barely see the 40-50 degree drop about
1/3rd of the way up the photo. img.villagephotos.comfirebreak withOpen ↗

Yup. I'm no lightweight but you think that it'd do better than that since I'm not actually
freeriding.

After this? I'm not too concerned about RockShox products right now ;-)

Nothing wrong with Manitou. I'm sure many here cut their teeth on the original Manitou's. They were
with all their CNC parts. Purple brake booster's were selling like hotcakes!
