Hi, guys, i am Brian, i just joined the form. i own a boardman mx sport 2014, on the way i ride to college, there is a very steep hill and it is very bumpy, with only the 63mm travel Suntour NEX-DS HLO Coil Fork, i do not feel like it help in anyway. so i wanted upgrade my fork, which fork should i be looking into and also can i upgrade my suspension on my my bike because i know not all the suspension fit in every single bike.

Off road or on road? Suspension forks work to keep the wheel in contact with the ground off road, they don't really improve comfort.
Hybrid forks are just crap and only fitted for marketing reasons. A rigid carbon fork is much better on road.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -

Get yourself a nice carbon fork. It will loose half a tonne and improve the ride quality.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350

Hybrid specific fork, the only options really are that fork or a rigid which will be lighter and may improve ride quality a bit. Neither bike or fork are designed for real off road use.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

Take a look at the carbon cycles website and planet x. Both have good value forks.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350
