Re: Decision time i think.... between these 3 forks.

hmmm 2 very similar forks, and then the revelation....

which i think unless you get the u-turn version may be damaging to your evo8.....evo8's max fork travel recommendation is 130mm....now the rev's are 140mm, unless you have the u-turn ones which you can adjust to 130mm, not a bigg an extra 10mm im sure, but it voids the warranty on your frame straight away...

down to the other two for me, and by the sounds of riding you do is mostly xc? well the sid's all day long, they are both 100mm travel, i think the sids are lighter and all round better components inside, inluding black box motion control rather than standard motion control...

reba race are still top notch so if they are 100quid cheaper id go for the rebas, if they are only 20-30 quid difference id head with the sid's....they are used alot by racers who usually know thre stuff so id choose the sids if its purely xc like you said you do most of...
