Does any body know anything about this fork? One thing I know is that it's relatively cheap... But how about travel and performance?

brad if i recall correctly parang pang-commuter fork lang yan..at best light/ recreational lang yan. i don't think its designed for trail work.. ang payat kasi nito eh, same diameter as most rigid forks
travel ata is 3" or less. 3k sa quiapo, ewan lang yung 2005 models baka na-modify na

That's the general idea. Di naman maarte kasi gf ko sanay maarawan at pagpawisan . Para di na ako pinagbabawalan, isasama ko na lang.

pare guaranteed maa-adik yan sa mtb i introduced my girl to it and she is no sports buff or outdoors woman whatsoever... ...now she's depressed when dehins siya nakakapag-ride pag weekends ;D (langiya, ako pa inaaway ) same story to another buddy of mine get some quality stuff and if in the extreme off chance that it dosn't click with her dehins mahirap ibenta yung bike kasi may halaga yung components sorry for the unsolicited two cents
