Hmm, I like Pace but there seems to be a helluva lot going on inside that fork - external rebound
adjustability, lock down, launch control, external travel adjustment... Just give me a plain
reliable fork any day.

The most plush and reliable fork I've ever had was also the simplest. The preload adjustment was a
cinch and while damping adjustment was an oil

anyway. The name of this beast? Rock Shox Judy C, 80 quid from a bargain bucket. I since replaced it
with an air Bomber and have had nowhere near as much joy from it.

They are interesting. Strange that the comments seem to focus on how Fox-like they are. Visually and
functionally, it seems a lot more like a refined Manitou with CF lowers to me. /s

I'd have to agree, whilst the most reliable fork I've owned was a RC35 AB from many moons ago, there
wasn't much to go wrong. Now, Pace's reputation is OK for the most in the UK at least, but the
Hollowform forks have had their issues with keeping water out, lets hope these are a little better
as they appaer to be going down the right path with the Zocchi influenced features.
