I got some old Dirt jumper 3's for £50
i didn't think the dirt jams were too good. don't quote me on that at all though0 -
Dirt Jumper 1, 2 and 3 are great forks but I would totally avoid Dirt Jam Comp or Dirt Jamp Pro forks. The rebound on them is terrible and the adjuster makes little to no difference.
DJ2s for £135 sounds like a bargain. What year and are they new or used?Current:

they are 2006 bolt throughs and they are brand new in the box. although i can get the new dirt jumper 2s for 1600

Either of those would be awesome mate, especially at those prices.
I think the 2008s are now made in Taiwan (instead of Italy) but they will still have to pass stringent QC checks so I wouldnt let that put you off. I think they might have some newer tech features too (I havent compared specs side by side to be sure of that though).
I have 2007 DJ2s and they're really nice forks. I have them quite soft with a slow rebound and they feel lovely.Current:

Have a look at

I know that they are a little above your budget (£179.99 RRP) but they're British built, have 36mm stanchions, you can use them with standard QR or 20mm bolt throughs, they've got more adjustment than you can shake a stick at AND they're getting very good reviews.
Just a thought.0
