Thanks chap.

Yep, took so long to answer that I ordered before they told me they were non-boost but they had posted within 2 hours so have to wait for them to arrive before sending back.

Doh

Arrived late today. In a box with no packing at all. Miracle they are unmarked.

But they are awesome to look at. Great weight am seem ideal. Not boost 140mm. They're going on my brothers bike I'll report back when fitted.

I’ve got  fox float performance 34 specced on my Vitus escarpe. Look similar to these.  They are 27.5 non boost set at 150mm.  And to my pleasant surprise they’ll take a 3.0nobby nic on a 45mm rim with room to spare.  Seem to be better than the more expensive non oem revs I have on another bike.

Mine arrived yesterday, should have been Saturday but hey ho, fitted 'em to my Bfe 26 aint dead and went for a quick blast, they seem fine, easy to set up and felt firm on the corners, a longer ride is planned tonight!

The description is wrong though, the stantions are grey/ pewter coloured not black!

Overall good value, cheaper than an overpriced second hand fork that will need a service 😉

Mine arrived today (ordered the 140mm ones) - thanks for the PSA.

4 digit product code is CZ92 which on the Fox tech site comes up as 2016 Performance Series 34 FLOAT 27.5 140 FIT4 3POS. They look like the CRC picture - black lowers, dark grey stickers, light bronzey stanchions.

Also arrived in a plain cardboard box that was starting to split down one end - thankfully they look fine. Nothing else other than the hose clip and a small paper manual.

I imagine arrived in a bigger batch intended for bike manufacturers. Probably easier to send like that and hope (and deal with some returns) than sort out proper packaging.

As the q&a, the 120 seem to be boost with black stanchions. The 140 are 100 with regular gold. They did drop the ball on the descriptions, but great price imo.
