If you’ve not tried those particular forks, no. Just ignorant. IME Magura forks are always VERY stiff.

Either you are not most people or you are lying, yes.
Why don’t you skeptics go and stick a 2 Step Totem at 135mm on a trail bike, then compare them with a Fox 32 140mm and tell me there’s no difference. Honestly some people must ride like utter f***ing gimps.
If you’re racing and hitting stuff hard, without quite so much care to your kit, smashing through things on a wheel which you need to take the tyre & rim strip off just to get to the spoke nipple to true it, is a stupendously crap design.
Question on fork stiffness isn’t whether you can feel a difference, it’s whether it matters to you. Swapping back and forth from my Lyriks to my Revs I can tell the difference very clearly but in all honesty, after 5 minutes I don’t care. Doesn’t mean the next dude won’t hate them though.
