I’ve just picked up an old G-Spot frame that I plan on building up into an Alps / occasional uplift / general talent compensator bike. Next thing is to get some forks for it. Initial thoughts were for some Lyriks, but they’re still not cheap so I thought I’d look around a bit and see what other options I had. So far I’ve come up with:
Old Marz 66s (second hand) – cheap, reckoned to be bulletproof but getting on a bit now.
RS Domains – bit clunky and heavy maybe, but solid – basically big Pikes?
Marz 55s – now, I know there were some fairly serious issues with early ones of these, but was it only specific models? Have they sorted it now? Jenson have some ridiculous deals on 09 TST ones, but I think those were the ones that broke a lot? (here) They also have 11 RV coil models for £250, which are improved I believe?
