Hello there fellow riders,
I am in great need of some assistance. I am lookin to replace the stock fork on my 2010 gt out post.(medium size and has disc brakes) I Don't really know where to begin, I'm a noob at this sport. Any suggestions? I have a budget of $150.00 . I payed $250.00 for it so I don't want to put inn more then I payed for the bike. Thanks

Hi, Bikeradar is a UK based site, and our advice will be based on what we know here.
$=US, Aus or some other?
The Outpost comes with a very basic Suntour M3000 fork, so nearly anything would be better.
Past tense of pay = paid by the way!

Sam,
Thanks for the suggestions. At this point any suggestions from the UK, Asia, South America, would be of some help. Pretty much anything is accessible though the web now a days.0 -
Indeed, but you gave a budget, without knowing which $ we won't know how much you have to spend, however assuming US$, I'd look at either Suntour Epicon or Raidon's, well within budget and a useful upgrade.
