Currently have a set of F120's QR, but thinking of changing to through axle.
Anyone tried either Fox 120 QR15 or Reba 120 maxle Lite back to back, or for or against comments on either??
Havent tried the fox but I liked the Reba's unfortunately they wont fit on my new frame... so they are here on eBay if you want to save a few quid.

I liked the Reba so much I bought two of them, it really is an amazing fork.
Since then I've tried a 140mm Float with QR15 and that was very good as well, better than I expected tbh.
I'd probably go for the Reba still though. In fact I may be putting one of mine on the classifieds soon - as my new bike has more travel and I've put a Rev Team on it, drop me a line if interested.
Mailed you.
Bought a set of Fox 120 QR15 few weeks back, not sure about all the good words in magazines: torsional stiffness, etc, etc but they do go where I point them and feel more secure than my Fox Float RLs QR. I know they are not fully bedded in yet but at the moment they lack a bit of small bump softness/sensitivity.
Overall pleased not ecstatic but only time will tell
I wouldn't bother swapping. My bolt thru F120s aren't much stiffer than my old QR forks. Infact I wouldn't have swapped to QR15 if it weren't for the fact that selling my old bike without a fork was too much hassle so ended up buying new.
Check the clearance with Reba - if you like to run a big front tyre it will be tight
I`d consider future wheel upgrades.With RS launching the Sektor,for the reason that Shimano and the like have supported the 15mm format rather than maxle light,the Fox option may give you more wheel chice.
Thanks for the advice
