    What country are you in?
    Not all models are available in all countries. For example, the Reba-equipped model is not available in the UK.

    Do you want to know which fork is better or which bike is better?

    Didn't you buy a Fathom last year?

    yes, but this is for a friend

    i think that the bike with the better fork will be better as whole bike.
