No the breakout is SICK
I definately would not go to the boxxer race, I've never liked the races one bit. The slider wouldn't be worth it over the breakout IMO. Stick with the breakout for now, and if you feel its not enough, get a nice DC when you get the money, like a boxxer team, shiver, dorado or 888r.
The problem with the dorado is there even less stiff than the beakout
Keep the breakout! It's good enough for DH (as good as the Gemini would be), and you still keep the bikes versatility for all other forms of riding.
On a limited budget, I would definitely stick with the Breakout. I know this isn't what you said, but I laugh when people talk about "upgrading" to a Boxxer. I only ride one because that's what my bike came with and I can't afford to get something better.
definatley get a slider plus there soo rad, i just got one of the urban camo ones, call up go-ride there $640 bucks there way good deal
good luck
good luck
if your going to spend 640 why not get a downhill single crown fork like the 66r there suppose to be nice and im not sure how much the new foxs are but the 36 is really nice from what ive herd.
whats the point of a single crown DH fork replacement when HE ALREAD HAS ONE
But what advantages does the slider+ give over a breakout+? I guess the extra length means a more linear spring rate, and you could go on about stiffness and confidence from dual crowns, but when it comes down to it, the Breakout+ is an awesome fork, and I wouldn't be replacing it if it were my bike, not unless there was something even more awesomeness to go on.jasonw111 said:
