I guess I was just thinking, if you upgrade bikes but only want to pay a couple hundred more than you would for a new fork you're going to get what you pay for. I mean, a good fork will run you $300 at least and can easily get up to $400-$500. I guess it depends on what you want the bike for though, and how much you'll use it.


I had these in a fork at one time. Felt OK, but other than air presure you can't adjust them. Plus they only lasted a year before they sprung a leak. If the bike is from the early 90's it probably has a one inch headset and good luck trying to find a decent fork with a one inch headset. I've been riding MTB's for over 15 years and the advancements in bikes during that time is pretty amazing. Get a new bike.
