Weve done magura at the shop for three years now and weve been very impressed with them!
Ill admit first gen ones were a bit hit or miss, i had a pair of first gen Wotans which were a port and orifice damping system made the forks extremely linear and the Seals were tooo good so made a bit of a stiction. I got rid of them pretty quickly,
Since then all Albert Select damping systems are a Shim based damping system, means there extremely tunable and now have a more progressive feel to them.
Also the seals have been slightly redesigned so there not as tight as they used to be, means less stiction but there still the best around at the moment.
Both myself and the boss use the forks, ive got a pair of Thors and the boss uses a pair of Durin Races, Boss’ Durins have been used for just over a year and i gave them there first service last week, the oil in both the lowers and in the stantions were completely clean, didnt even have to put new seals in they were so perfect!
We also have a pair of Durin Marathons on our Demo Cotic Soul and everyone that has taken them out has lots of praise for them. So depending where you stay you could come and have a shot of a pair, were bsaed in pitlochry Scotland, Just north of perth.
And last but not least they havent really raised there prices for this year!
