If you want pretty stiff, very light but higher price, Magura Durin. If you want stiff as a stiff thing, light enough, then Magura Menja. I use the Menja on my Soul.

2nd menjas, esp as you can get them pretty cheap used.

i ran mine at stock 130mm on my intense, before getting some pikes so reduced them to 100mm and now use on my yeti arc. also when i serviced/reduced them in dec i was very impressed with the build quality of the internals (esp compared to manitou whcih were the last forks i'd worked on).

mind you if i see a good price on some used 100mm durins i would be tempted.

I would say Rockshox Sid team, cos I've got them, I choose them cos they got great reviews in last months What mountain biking mag, they say they put most 120mm forks to shame 😀

I'd go with Magura - I've got some Rebas & Laurins and just swapped them so the Laurins are on the bike I ride most. If I was buying now I'd go for the Durins.
