I normally go for the Fox stuff, but seems a bit pricey for what it is and others Burgtec for example are 1/2 the price. Any1 got any recommendations. 15x110 boost, M14xP1.5

Prefer something tried and tested. Not just the cheapest thing available.

From the fork serial number its got it as a 2021, though it has '22' stamped on the back of the brace.

Can't go wrong with Burgtec, I got them front and rear in blue, they seem sturdy, a bit heavier than Rockshox maxles but that's a good thing imho, Allen fitting at both ends, not that I've needed it. I own four so rate them highly.

Can go wrong with Burgtec, I bought the same thing for my Ohlins, and while it did the job, the ano. wore off pretty quickly, the metal was soft and rounded out pretty fast, not massively impressed if I'm honest.

Front & rear Burgtec's here too. Plus their Shimano crank bolt for good measure.

Have the (CRC) Brand-X on a couple bikes for a couple years - been fine and also have the hex head both ends just in case you are a bit hamfisted with the hex keys 😉 Were about a tenner when I bought them.
