But I thought you wanted to save some weight?
He will save around 1.5lbs over the 55s that he currently has. Not bad really. Yes he could have saved a lot more but he could also compromise what he likes about the bike by doing so. Lighter flexier forks just don't track as well as heavy forks through the bumpy stuff.
Fitted the forks yesterday, went out last night for first ride. Massive difference, didn't expect it to be as much a difference but I would say that the bike for me now is perfect. I was able to hop and pop over various roots, had a lot more control of the bike, better when on the rad and really easy to change. Took it over the freeride park also nd found a lot more control in the air and the bike handles a lot better over the bumps.
