Trying to avoid the obvious choice so I'm looking at the R7 Elite, which at 1500g and not a RS Reba is currently £225 at CRC, but does anybody out there use one? or are they still considered Manipoo?
Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.

Who are you calling inbred?

    Not sure what the R7 is like but my old Manitou Axels leaked and my Manitou Splices weren`t a patch on the Rebas that replaced them.

    Manitou spares availability is and service back up is pretty much non existant too.

    I recently took my Rebas apart to service them and they looked hardly worn.

    Rebas are the default choice for a reason! :wink:

    Hapy with my R7 forks.

    They dont really leak at all compared to my old Fox Floats.

    Cheers
