They are a nice supple fork - but not particularly stiff in comparison to the current RS and Fox forks. Also have historic reliability issues. Although the 2013 forks may have solved this, personally, having owned a set of older unreliable ones I wouldn't risk it.

Other bikes in this price all have rs forks. Xc32 or recon silver.
Maybe I'll go for one of those, or there is a cube for 50 less with v similar spec but recon silver.
