Out of the Suntour forks, which ones are the worst and which the best? I know apparently they're all not very good, just wondering where abouts the ones that came on my bike are on the list.

Mine are XCT V2

    of cause they dont list prices.
    so what do you want to know about your fork? oh and a year helps.

    No prices seems a bit strange.

    '09, was just looking to see where abouts they are in the scale from best to worst out of the Suntour forks really. Just a rough idea like, as in the owrst ones or not too bad in comparison or the best (unlikely I know)

    Cheers

    Suntour don't sell the forks to us - their importer does.

    have a look at Greyville Enterprises for UK RRP.

    When I first started getting into mountain biking I bought a set of XCR suntours for the GT I had at the time. First time out on the blue run at Llandegla they siezed solid half way down. They were quickly replaced with Toras!

    I've heard them stories of the seizing thing, hope it don't happen to me, not just yet anyway. I've given mine a few days on the roads and easy stuff so hopefully they'll be worn in nicely for when I get on the trails.
