fournales or girvins

[dirtydozen]

Look fournales they are. On my phone so cant upload any. Both spot on condition

Go for the Fournales, they're much nicer! - the later, cartridge bearing version is apparently much more reliable than the earlier one, and is even more intricately machined. The build quality is something else and they're supposed to work really well too (but I haven't tried mine yet )

You take the girvins, I'll take the fournales; Simple.

Not kidding, would LOVE a set!

Only issues is the girvins have a mark on the lower leg and the shock on the fournales has a slight noise when compresding

they look to be the last, cartridge bearing Fournales - buy them.
You'll need a pump capable of 180+ psi to stop them diving though (apparently)
