Guys, theres no review of this fork in the RS thread. I'm planning to buy one for me and I would like to read some personal reviews from the people here. I've seen the reviews on mtbr but I'd like to hear local reviews sana of this fork. Sorry for making another thread for another RS but I'm afraid that if I post it in the General RS thread, it might not get noticed. Thanks in advance for the reviews!

I guess Boss Bernie has some reviews of this fork, on the Rock Shox Fork review. Well anyway, for me, this is my revuew coz I have it installed in my Giant HT.
Dart 3 is a nice XC fork, it has pre-load adjustment, lock-out turn knob and rebound adjustment. It is 100m travel and is light for its kind, only 2.127 kgs., I guess you did see the specs on the Rock Shox website.
Now, on the road, the lock-out works well, if you locked it, it's almost a rigid fork giving you lots of pedal powers and a stable ride. If you unlock it, you will enjoy the forks play, not so soft, just right ( maybe depending on your weight ). This is a good not so expensive fork yet it is a Rock Shozx.

Sir angelobryant RS Dart 1, 2 and 3 series, replaces the famous RS judy series as per RS is concerned, so eventually no more Judy series, if my understanding is correct.... its entry fork But a good one especially for XC..at a budget-friendly price!!!

Just in case what would be the next level for after the Dart series in terms of price and availability? Btw, one that could also handle a 250 lbs biker
