Hiya.
I've been doing some research into forks because I'd like to upgrade the Judy TT on my bike (stock on bike). Forks in my current price range include the Rockshox Duke XC U-turn, the Psylo SL (although I don't know if this comes with V-brake bosses), Manitou Skareb Super and Manitou Axel.
This far my LBS has recommended the Manitou Skareb, but I'm looking at buying online because it'll probably work out cheaper even with shipping costs. I'm in Cape Town where prices can get a bit steep on bike equipment.
Are there any other forks in this range you guys could recommend? Alternatively which of these 4 would be the better option? I'm a pretty serious, hard-riding recreational rider, weigh approx. 95 kg, and my local trail is pretty rocky so while long travel is not that important, it needs to soak the bumps nicely.
Thanks in advance!
Terry
