Second thoughts on forks, please help!(5 posts)

Second thoughts on forks, please help!Garson
Sep 4, 2001 4:24 AM
I'm building up a Planet X Bommer, and first I wanted to put a boxxer on, but I can't get a new one. Then, I was considering an MX6, but those are heavy and cost alot, plus I've heard that replacement parts are almost non existant. I saw a good price on a 2002 Rockshox Psylo SL w/20mm tulio dropouts. I'm probably going to go for that. It's under $400 w/shipping. Anybody ridden them (2002) cause they're supposed to be ultra nice.

Do you really have any idea what you want?

First you are looking at boxxers, then Psylos. These are very different forks. Work out what sort of riding you are gonna be doing, and what type of fork you need, then start looking at specific models.

I'm going to be doing mostly urban. The Psylo is looking good right now, cause of the price, and ease of getting replacement parts. I may go that way, cause I'm not sure I want 6" and also, I think that the weight and travel adjustment will be nice for trailriding. So unless anybody has had any durability issues with them, I think that's what I'm going to get.
If you really want a Boxxer go-ride.com has 2 of them (nm)go-ride.com
