I seriously need a new fork (just bent lowers on mine and is not worth to fix it). I have a american friend who rides dh too and live here, he is now in US and is getting me any fork that I want when hes back.
The fork is going to a Giant Faith with a Fox dhx 4.0 shock:
Rider Weight: 172 pounds
Style: aggresive and not so smooth (working on it)
Budget: 600 bucks max.
My options so far (brand new forks):
05 Marzocchi 888 rc (170mm verison is still tall?) for 490 $ (brake dive?)
07 Boxxer race for 600 $ (problem cames with tall upper and my headtube length including headset is 150mm ) besides that, maybe stock sping is too stiff?
By now those are my options
And I don't know if the basic Motion control of the boxxer race is better than the trusty HSCV form a 05 zocchi......
I may consider used
Any kind of advice will be welcome.
