I have spotted these on Bike 24 as a big wheel suspension fork with a more attractive price than the highly rated Reba RLTs. Is any body using them? I would really like to find out if they are the real deal or just a basic pogo stick. Thanks in advance.

They work very well on my Singular, not too bouncy but I'm no expert.

I found the best price here and quick service.

They are good, a little woody but then they are cheap for what you get.
Suntour are real good at that price point too.

Got a set on my Scandal, they are pretty good but lack motion control damping of Rebas so action isnt as good.

If i was to buy again id pay the extra for the Rebas. Some of the online German shops do them for around 300 quid, often post free

Thanks Boz, I'll have a look - I've looked at Bike 24 and H&S which are oft mentioned on threads hereabouts, do you know of anywhere else?

I did a search via google.de when i was looking a while back and these came out cheap at the time - http://r2-bike.com/Rock-Shox-29er-Reba-RLT_1

I think bike24 were similar in price as well.
