my mate fitted a pair of u-turn ones on his new bike and second ride out they made a huge snapping noise (sounded like the frame had gone.) and they now stop dead after about 20mm of travel! this and the sh!te reviews the lyriks have been getting I reckon they have a dodge batch out this year like fox did a few years back.

I recently sold my 2009 36's to buy some 2010 team rev's 150. I've had 2008 & 2009 revs, 2007,2008,2009 pikes, fox 140 rlc, f100 rl, float 100rlt etc etc and the 2010 revs (black box version) are by far the best I've tried (weight v's plushness v's cost)

I have the 09 rev's. I went for the all travel version as there is less to go wrong and have not had one hiccup with them in 7 months! Heard the Uturn version are not so good and few people have had a few probs. I also have the 09 Lyriks and the 2 step broke after just over an hour of light use! £570 in the sale is a lot of money for forks to break so easily and I'm still waiting on the warranty! Any brand/model of fork seems to be hit and miss these days.

I've got a set of 08s on the Soul and a set of 09s for the Hemlock but I'll be replacing those with the 2010 u-turn maxles…

ive just sold a set of pushed pikes which i thought were great but fancied something bigger for my ht.

i recently sold my talas 36 off my 5 to put 2010 revs on the front. they are the 150 maxle ones but motion control rather than black box. i love em! so impressed, weigh 3.8lbs with steerer cut to 200mm and work absolutely great. ill get them pushed at their 1st service or possibly upgrade to the new black box stuff if thts possible but for now they are great. im not gentle with them and they feel plenty stiff.
