After viewing the Fox range, 08 and 09 im wondering which ones to get? Any reccomendations? I'm on a Kinesis Maxlight 120, but wouldprefer something that will work on technical rocky decents. I was thinking about the Vanilla's and reducing them down to 120mm's or maybe the talas or even the F120s. What are your opinions? Also I don't want anything over 2kg, and anything upto about 130mm travel.

    The F120 would be top of my list out of them.

    But have you considered the 09 Reba with 120mm travel and 20mm through axle?

    So would you say the Rebas are better?

    Not necessarily better, after all - nobody's ridden them yet - but the combination of the right length, good reliability reputation and the 20mm axle for stiffness might appeal - especially since you mention technical rocky descents.

    Of course you might need a new front wheel too, if you don't already have a 20mm one.
