RockShox Reba Team
U-turn Forks
I have been using these Reba forks
for around one year - from
an initial stiff start the Reba forks have loosened up to become
a very supple and responsive fork.
These Reba's utilise the now familar to many forks
instant U-turn travel adjustment feature - meaning on the fly travel
adjustment at a turn of a knob. Travel can be set anywhere between
85
and 115mm. These forks also feature the new
Rockshox poploc feature, incorporating a bar mounted control lever
too.
Positive and negative air chambers allow
for fine tuning of performance to suit rider weight
and preferences.
At 1600g the Reba fork is lighter and cheaper than the Fox
Forx F100, and the Reba's
aren't far behind in terms of plushness.
Overall these forks are fantastic,
they work damn well out on the trail and they do certainly look the
part to boot.
If you are perhaps on the prowl for a new set of forks, and Fox are
out of your budget, seriously have a look at the Reba's, there sure to
suit your XC/trail needs.

Rating:
4/5. A superb XC/All mountain fork. Not far off the standards of Fox
Forks, but less a few hundred pounds on the asking price! Take a while to
bed in, but plush and progressive after. Light and tough. On the trail
quick travel adjustment. A real mountain bikers fork.
