New Fork?
Underpants
Posts: 120
Only had my bike 5 minutes but have been well and truly bitten by the bug and I am looking at upgrading my forks...mainly because its my birthday coming up and our lass said she'd get me some 
So, I currently have Dart 3's on my Cinder Cone and to be honest havent found anything wrong with them but as I dont have anything to compare against I wouldnt know whether these are great or gross.
So what would be a decent upgrade? Don't really want to go above £200 but could stretch to £250 if its really worth it....white forks would also be a nice bonus to pimp it out a bit!
Alternatively if you think the money would be better off upgrading another component(s) please suggest...Thanks!

I've not ridden darts so can't comment on how much of an upgrade 200 - 250 quid would give you
but
with that money, I'd be looking at a nice light set of wheels. Mavic 717s on XT hubs with DT Rev spokes will be less than 200 for the pair fromMerlin. Much less if you go for 317s, then you could have some spare for a nice carbon h-barEverything in moderation ... except beer

If riding an XC race bike is like touching the trail,
then riding a rigid singlespeed is like licking it
... or being punched by it, depending on the day0 -
have a look at the rock shoc toras or rebas0

Which ones are best? They both seem to have about 5 different versions?0
