I'm in the process of building a 4X bike to try and improve my jumping (as lack of jumping ability/confidence seriously hampers my trail centre riding).
I've bought an older Krisis SL frame with a non tapered head tube. Can anyone recommend me a decent fork that would be suitable for 4X and this frame (100-120mm).
Not looking to spent a fortune as this with be just a 'play' bike, so something around £100 ?
Many thanks
Michael

Keep your eyes open for some old 20mm axle rebas?
RS Argyle RCT although good luck finding some for £100
Have tried budget Bombers/RSTs they were crap tbh they just ruin the ride
Or 20mm sektors
Or Marz 4X
Older Marzocchis - Z1 Duals might pop up for £100 very rarely. Otherwise 4X's...
Thanks guys, I'll make a note of all of the above. I've got some ooooooold M. Dirt Jumpers, but they weigh an absolute ton (and are only QR).
If you can find a set in budget, then older Fox 36's could be spaced down to that travel (or at least I'm pretty sure they could be based on the TALAS being 160/130/100 switchable).
Older Z1's should be in budget - there's a pair of 130mm Z1 Freerides with a 20mm axle for sale on Retrobike (my old forks).
Slightly longer than you were looking for but well within budget - I used them at the BMX track on my old diddy BFe without issues.
