Anything that has a name like a travel company to the Costa Del Sol just puts me off for some reason.
Aside from the name, I'd always pick RockShox stuff if it's on offer over Suntour, and especially the Recon stuff. Just seem to be more well respected, reliable and worth the money.
What's your budget? That Recon is a coil shock which at that end of the market you're better off with an air shock. More plush and adjustable. If you can push for a Solo Air then go for that. Better still an RL Recon air shock. But also depends what you're looking to do, what kind of riding.
To be fair the Suntour is an air shock. Interesting the description says disc brake only yet looks to me it has mounts for rim brakes?0 -
I recently tested these both for What Mountain Bike - results are in issue 138.0

That's nice, do save us some money and tell most?0

Well I'd get the Recon ;-)
But I can't tell you the result. Yet. buy it...0 -
