Any user experiences of Bos Deville forks?

Not much about on any searches!

The AM is actually meant to be shite. Go for the standard fork.

I don't know much about the AM version but I have The previous 140mm Deville which is great.

Don't know much about the AM's, but my normal Devilles are great and make my old 36 RC2's bouncy and uncontrolled.

What have you heard that makes the AM shite?

My 160 TRC's are brilliant. Very controlled.

Got deville forks on my capra still early days but they're really good verging on the best forks I've ever owned. I've had them 4 and half months

Unrefined damping in comparison to the standard model.

Hey Gordy, long time! I've been running a set of deville 160's this last year and they've been amazing. For people who ride like you ride they're great. Really at their best when used hard. Mine have done a year without blinking and it's been a big old year. Now they're needing an oil change, just lost that amazing smoothness but still working great. I had a dealing with jungle about the shock lever and they were beyond excellent so high hopes for service support.

Don't know what I'll have next year. Please let it be the BOS again.

Hi Doug. How are things?

[i]For people who ride like you ride they're great.[/i] Yep you know me well ๐Ÿ˜†

I'm totally undecided, I've got X-Fusion sweeps in the shed that I've never used but I'm not convinced they are capable of the ragging I'll give them, whereas the Bos sound like they are at their best when being ridden hard.
Only other ones I've spotted might be Marzocchi 350cr which I've no idea what they are like either?
