I'm thinking of putting 120s up front on my old Mount Vision (c1990, the very first incarnation) - anyone any suggestions? I'd though RockShox Rebas, but not sure if the bike'll take it - it's currently got an ancient pair of Z1 Flylights that just keep on going ...

I ran 100mm MX Bomber's on a circa 2000 MV frame and felt the handling suffered (climbing ability) as it came with 80mm forks.
I'd run 100mm Reba's, but then there adjustable between 80-100-120mm or 85/110/115mm dependant on age, so you can try what you like, and convert it to another setting if your not convinced.
