Wanted 29er Boost Suspension Forks

[retroJIM]

I'm on the lookout for some boost suspension forks for less than £300. 100mm-120mm of travel should be plenty.

I'm considering these

but wonder if anyone has anything better? I'll need a long (> 220mm) or un-cut steerer.

I could possibly stretch to these, they're 800gm lighter!

Thanks for the suggestion but the steerer is too short and I don't think I need 160mm of travel. I always thought of Suntour forks as bottom of the range stuff you'd get on Halfords BSO's. I guess times have changed. I should do some more research

The lower suntour are still junk. Those above are top of the range, really good.

I might have some fox 34s in the new year

got a set of manitou machete that i swapped out for some fox factories last year. can dig them out if your interested?

The Rockshox Judy are budget forks and I'd steer clear. Manitou or Suntour's will be better. Saying that, for £300 there should be a few decent forks about so I'll have a look.

@dablk could you PM me some pictures and a price for the Manitou Machete?
@coomber any news on the Fox 34s?

Cheers guys.

Will do @retroJIM Won’t be till the weekend as I’m away currently.

Hey mate. 34s still on my bike as I've had to get a few other bits so funds are low. Probably end up giving them a service as upgrades are extreme money for anything better. Sorry, was a late change in plans.
