I had some (2006)

The stanchions wore away, the travel adjust was a bit hit and miss sometimes and Ive read about plenty of them didgy cartridges that leak oil where oil shouldnt be which makes them feel really harsh.

I would never buy them again

I've got some on mine, they are very nice forks. Bought them second hand 4 years old. Have had a slight issue in that the TALAS function stopped working but it was a 10 minute DIY job to fix taking off the top cap and screwing a bolt back in.

However, I knew I was buying a high maintenance fork, if I wasn't reasonably technically competent I would not have bought them.
