Looking to replace my reba’s on my T120 as I fancy something different, looking at 120mm, tapered steerer with 15mm axle.

I can get DT Swiss XMM 120 from Evans for £329 and TF have started to do their servicing, quite like the look of the remind me of my 1997 rc36’s and the reviews seem to say they are nice and stiff but fiddly to set up.

Fox Float 120 RLC fit with Kashima from CRC for £449 look good and do well on reviews, just wondered how stiff these are for my svelte 95kg frame.

X Fusion Slant, 18 bikes £445 new fork and therefore not a lot of info about but other models in the range have seemed to be doing well, these have 34mm stanctions so should be well suited to my weight and erratic riding style.

Any info, experience, other suggestions appreciated, ride in the peaks mainly plus lakes, Wales etc.

Will get ridden twice a week minimum so reliability is important to.

ahem... http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/1299352/

oh, and they are plenty stiff enough in 120mm guise. i am 95kgs also. i think above 140mm travel, a 34mm chassis would work better.
