Are these RS-1's?

[brocklanders023]

..... or something else? Assumed they were when I got the bike having had a quick compare but others have questioned their validity?

If not, what are they!?

Look like it. You can see the faint outline of the letters SHOX on the lower part of the stanchion.

+1 looks right for an RS-1 to me

What has been questioned?

I just wanted to make sure that they are rs1’s but the arch gives it away

Thanks both, great stuff. Just had it questioned a couple of times and I'm no expert.

to me this is a RS1, but questioning makes allays sense, I came across once of a Trek DS2 with Rockshox stickers.
It was hard to see the difference.

Picture of the DS2 from Trek catalog 1992, crown, arch and legs look very similar to the RS1 fork.

Yes. It’s an RS1
the little decal around the stanchion is specific
