Hi, my friend has an 09 Giant Trance x2 with a Fox F120rl fork. The fork need servicing and she fancies a bit more travel at the front.

What are the fork options in the above spec? Is it just RS Revelations? Any deals around?

Thanks

Ian

Me and my bf have 140mm Suntour Epicons on our HTs and I have 140-180mm Duroluxs on my FS bike. Both are brilliant, inexpensive and easy to service. Spares are easily available from here-

and the technical support from the Suntour website is brilliant.

I have nothing at all to do with Suntour, I just hate paying for a badge.

X-Fusion Velvets fit the bill nicely and come in range of size options.

I ran my 08 (100mm as built, pre X) Trance with 140mm Revelation RLT. It was superb, little while to get used to really far forward in the saddle, with well bent arms on steep climbs , but really transformed the bike in most situations.
