OK folks i fancy upgrading the old school Z1's on my singlespeed. I'm thinking x-fusion Velvet at the moment. Any one out there with some and an opinion (good or bad)? I'm also trying to figure out whether the DLA model is internally adjustable or not. I think that they probably are not but i would like confirmation...

Cheers folks.

Only very brief car park test on someone else's fork.VERY linear,the last inch of the travel seemed much like the first.Pretty supple even though they needed 30-40psi more than fox's and a little more than rs for my weight.The travel adjust is very slick.Pretty harsh top out clunk...though could be a rogue set.

I've only had one ride on mine, they seem good so far, especially for the money.

Yeah, can't argue with the price to be honest. That's what's attracting me to them. I realised last week that forks have moved on so much in the past 12 years! The Fox on my 'good' bike are so much better controlled. It's defo time to treat my SS to some nicer springs...

Are they cheaper than RS offerings on Merlin?
