Ive got a 2010 epic and ive borrowed a set of 120mm forks and really like how the bike rides with the extra at the front, i can see why spec done it with the evo but im not getting on brilliant with the forks themselfs specialized s120 future shocks,

What forks would people recomend, i can get a very good deal on some marzocchi 44 rc3 ti but im not sure if the lack of lockout is putting me off them at the moment althou i know they have compression adjust so i guess that takes away alot of the dive under braking.

( i understand all the warrenty issues so if we could just consentate on fork advice ;))

Thanks in advance rob

I've been happy with my reba race which is set to 120mm my only gripe is would like it to be a little longer to slacken the head angle on my motolite.

Can you up your SIDs to 120 by removing a spacer? I think it is possible on some. It depends on the build.

i think based on mine having the 80mm measurements on the side mine can only go down to 80 shame really as that would have been a win situtation
