Hi all,

I have a question for the mtn. bikers, particularly those who do xc
racing. I am trying to decide on a front shock. I have heard very good
things on a white brothers shock with the big thing there is no
maintenance issues with them- very solid, long-lasting design. however,
it stretches my price range for what I want to spend on a front shock (I
think entry-level white brothers shock is about $600).

Is there a stellar front fork out there from the main shock brands (rock
shox, Manitou, fox) that people are happy with (and why?) and is a
better deal in terms of price?

Thanks,

Jay
