Hi,

Out of the following four forks which one is best?

1) Rockshox Sektor TK Solo air
2) Rockshox 30 Gold TK Solo air
3) Rockshox Sektor Gold
4) X- Fusion Velvet RL2

With regards to the Rockshox forks my understanding is that the Sektor Gold is the best out of the three above, followed by the Sektor TK and then the 30 Gold. How does the X-Fusion Velvets compare to them all?

    X Fusion is probably the best but depends on use and the bike it's to be fitted to.

    With RMSC, the Sektor gold is the best of the RS offerings and in latest trim a very competant fork, the X-fusion is also good and which one is better FOR YOU depends on the bike and riding.....

    I'd have the XF from that selection... but the Sektor gold will be better for harder riding. Id avoid the other two - unless the Sektor TK is stupid cheap. Its a decent fork if less than £200 (new).
