I'm after a reasonable XC fork. In the current round of sales, both the Durin X and Rebas are affordable and similarly priced; is there a clear winner (or anything else in the sub-£300 catagory)?

Based on personal experience, not much will beast a Reba for that sort of money. Think also servicing (doddle) and spares availability ( ebay overflowing with cheap service kits thanks to Unklehomer). I have a 140 THor, and don't love it as much as my Reba.

The only thing to be wary off on a reba is the miniscule clearance by the brace...

I think you'd be happy with either. I run 2 Thors and a Durin and have had no problems and love the performance. I have used Rebas as well though and they were pretty good as well.

I'd go for whatever you can get the best deal on and whichever colour suits your bike best!

What is the magura warranty, is it two years like the reba?

Cheers

The SIDS look great but ideally I'd be after 100mm not 120mm. It looks as if there's a fair amount of choice though.
