hi what forks would you expect to see on a £850 bike

At £850 there are bikes with crap coil forks, bikes with good coil forks, bikes with decent air forks and others with better air forks. I'd expect to see all of them in shops, I'd only buy a bike at £850 with a good fork.0

Depends completely on what type of bike. Assuming you mean an ordinary trail/XC bike, then something like a Rockshox Recon Soloair, or some kind of lower-range, air-sprung fork, but a rigid fork might not be unreasonable either.0

on the note of rigid forks. the kona unit might be a way to go. awesome ss hard tail xc ripper!0

I got a £750 bike last month with epicon air forks and im pretty happy with them so far , but then it was a Boardman and they are well specced compared to the more established brands.The family that rides together stays together !
