Yup its true. They make the forks in the same factory. You can notice the steerer tube of the marz and sr suntour is the same. Some stickers of the lock out side is also the same. Its like honda and acura or toyota and lexus. Its the same maker or company in a way. Thats what so good about sr suntour has the technology and performance of a high end fork.

yeah, me too, i wanna read some reviews from our local riders here, i saw this fork in Newton, SRP is P4,800, colors black and gray =) i used to own the older version of the duro, i think it was the 06' version, really nice fork! stiff and the dampening is perfect for urban riding =)

I'm currently using the older version I bought from TRIBAL TECHNO... It has a good stiff ride and I was surprised that the knobs do really adjust the stiffness!! I thought it was just for aesthetics like other forks of the same range or level.. Anyway, it's a good buy since companies make newer models because they made improvements on the old ones... At least that's the way it's supposed to be.. hehehe.. If anyone wants to sell a 08'suntour duro dj for P3,500 PM me ASAP!!! ;D
