As above.

I have a pair of old air Recon's and they may be usable as I can lower the pressure to compensate for his low weight (he is only very light) but I would like to keep them on my winter bike.
What is the best option for a shortish travel fork for a lightweight rider?

Cheers muchly

I picked up a pair of S/H Marzocchi Marathons for my 11 year old's Kona - excellent forks, easy to tune and work really well for him
