Hi All
im looking to upgrade my forks to 120mm...

i have 2 questions..

1. will any 120 fork fit or are there limitations, technical requirements etc..

2. Any recommendations on a good 120mm fork :-)

thanks...

You will need a standard 1/18th steerer, just check the length before you buy.

Budget?

If you are buying a discounted fork, it might have been originally specced for a bike, so the steerer tube (being measured here) may be cut down, and too short to clamp the stem on.

Which year X3 do you have? If it has a Rock Shox Reba (2009) you can remove the internal spacer from the fork to extend it to 120mm..

i would say the f120 from fox is worth a shout preferably the 2011 if you can find it in the price you want
