I've had numerous Fox and RS forks.

Overall, the Fox with the RC2 damping outperforms any other fork I've owned. However, the R, or Rlc models do not and are overpriced when compared to the competition.

Fox forks are probably in the top 1 for performance however that comes at a huge price, v.regular servicing, bi-annual new stanchions etc etc etc etc etc etc...

decided to go with fox in the end. Seems like the only reason to go rockshox is if you cannot be bothered to maintain them as no-one said that rockshox were a better ride? Bike is now in the post!

Also, I may never be able to afford another pair of fox forks again as bought seperate they do seem a tad on the expensive side. Rockshox seem more affordable and I could pick up a Reba race from merlin for not a huge amount more than a service and some new stanchions from mojo (which I won't need as I will maintain it every 30 seconds ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

just don't do any 24 hour races on the Foxes as you will void the warranty ๐Ÿ™‚
