What's the pros and cons with these two kind of forks?
As I see it, the normal fork, like the RockShox Boxxer, has a lower point of gravity and has a less problems with dirt, mud ect. Where as the upside-down fork, like the White Brothers Groove 180 & 200, seems to be a lot stronger in its construction. I've also read that it "... decreases the unsprung weight of the bike and improves its handling." over the normal fork design.
Anyway, I was just wondering and thought that it would be interesting to hear you peoples view on this.
