Solid video!
Got this fork on my winter hack hardtail and it's far better than it should be! Does benefit from regular regreasing of the lowers but I'm going to try converting it to an oil bath instead, others have done it and it apparently makes a big difference.
i think that is the xcr 32. there is also the xcr 34 wich has 34 mm stanchion tubes. and its also a pretty good xc-trail fork from what ive heard
I bought my suntour epixon for about 160€ and it has worked like a dream
Actually here in the philippines for about 160 dollars you can get a sr suntour epixon fork or a manitou markhor
I would recommend sr suntour epixon for budget forks, its one of the best fork for me
@Moon 28 no it's a more cross country (XC) and trail fork
@@hc5816 You can do everything exept downhill things, for all mountain the epixon works very good
Used to had an old Suntour Epicon 26, is difficult to fine tune it, but excellent behavior for the price, remote lock out, and sooooo easy to maintain, and not so often than other premium brands, now riding Marzocchi, better performance but more complicated, the same as a Fox brand
i prefer coil to air, as long as you stick to rockshox or suntour as they do have different springs available. i have a rockshox xc30 with an extra firm spring, it's great.
I don't think I have ever heard that before
for 1000 EUR you can buy bike with sram NX eagle and manitou markhor in decathlon ,just saying
Thats just the best airforc in the Philippines because we can't afford fox or rockshock
🤣 me too bro, me too, lol
@@stevensoares3532Rockshox Judy is much better and i think cost is very similar?
Me as a german ,,,i ride it 😊👆🏻
I am just very lucky to be able to buy a Fox F-series 2011 120mm travel for only 180USD on a clearance sale in my country.
Respect from Romania bro.
Awesome video and THANK YOU for using a MERIDA bike. More videos on the Big Seven 40D and up would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again. 🤔👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
A fork should have a rebound adjustment, too.
You can put some self-made volume spacers into the air chamber if there is some space.
I got a dirtjump bike and it had a rst *_dirt_* coil fork and it was way too soft.
It was made for dirtjumping... Now I just put on ! 29" rockshox 30 air fork and I am planning to actually buy a better fork in the right size.
I would love to know your professional thoughts on the UDING UD32 RL Suspension Fork. I REALLY WOULD!
Me too
I'm an older rider and weigh 220lbs. Anything with a spring is a pogo stick. Rockshox TK 30 were a nice pair of....pogo sticks. lol I love my Marz Bombers dual air. Find them used for less than 50 bucks....they work. May have to rebuild them. But I can put 50lbs of pressure in both chambers and hop a 3 foot curb and not feel my bones vibrate like a spring coil. ha ha
epixon is very cheap here in Philippines it cost only 150$ or a coil xcr cost 40$
Epixon the best paren hehe
yeah cheap and durable
Epixon ♥
ya. my scott scale 990 also used this fork. absolutely amazing performance.
I recommend and prefer Suntour suspension forks They are fantastic works great Suntour has forks for all types of styles and riding don't be limited by this guy's recommendation See for yourself from beginner to advanced they have a suspension fork for Everyone....SR Suntour I ride em!
@Steve Bazemore I think you should listen to the video again He puts the Ky bosh on this one and Suntour in general
I ride hard. And I ride Suntour. I think they out perform rockshox silver and gold ALL DAY LONG. And just to clarify for the both of you he actually said he did not have any knowledge of or experience with Suntours line. It is a great shock and there is a Suntour for all riders and all applications. I highly recommend them.
merida sells theyr bikes with good parts
i have a merida big e nine 500 and came with centerlock disk brake sountour raidon air, deore shadow rear deraileur,the brakes are some 40-50 euros 1 set ,15mm axle hub,amd maxxis tyre
orbea in fact offer you half of that
Hey SickBiker, people could also consider 2016-2017 fork models, such as reba that can be found for around 200 euros.
Hi. My rebound on this fork doesn’t seem to work. Is that normal?
No
Yes
Don`t buy cheap fork. Buy older fork With Heavy discount. Look at chainreactioncycles save 70% on 2016 forks. Before price 650 euro now 185 euro
Ik I got a fork that should be 1008 but I got it for 48 insane price I couldn't believe it but we went to pick it up and it was legit I was so happy thanks for recommending
I would like you to review the ztz kashima air fork on Amazon
gr8 review bro
I think my friends got this model its has the remote. Not bad better than the cheaper rst. I was rockshox niw im ysing the Marzocchi 320 lh which i find very good for the money
How do you compare this fork with manitou markhor?
? You don't! The Manitou is way better.
Fork merk venom more cheapest bro..fitur lock air
5.5 pounds 2,455 grams.
I have the Cannondale trail 6 2020 should i upgrade?
what can you say about sr suntour axon 34? thanks!
what model of merida is that?
www.merida-bikes.com/en/bike/43/bignine-nx-edition
Epixon is around 1.8kg
any review of suntour xcm 32 coil boost thru axle, is this fork worthy ?
Where Is the link for other light weight air suspension???
Hello from Chile, I think the scale 980 2021, comes with that fork, but it has remote lock,
according to the price $$, of the 980 and 970, in Chile they are worth the same $.
which one do you recommend? and because?
bye Bye
La scale 980 viene con una horquilla de resortes, por lo tanto no la recomiendo. Este modelo es una variante de la suntour xcr, que sí es de aire.
What are your thoughts on the Raidon 32 LOR-DS 29" fork?
Perfect budget fork for light trail use i have tried it before
Hey sickbiker! I was thinking, is the fork i have, rockshox xc32 tk coil, considered as a cheap budget fork or is it a decent fork as it has the same damper as the recon
If it is coil it can't have damper, more like spring tension. XC and recon have many variants but overall recon is superior. XC was good in its time many moons ago.
what brakes is that?is it shimano MT200..?
Mt500 I think
@SickBiker I bought the Vitus Nucleus you recommended. I weigh 230lbs your saying Markour?
You bought a vitus nucleus &need to upgrade the fork? Doesn't it come with Fox shocks? I've been saving for a vitus. Any comments or concerns?
I have a fork like this and I am thinking of changing it for an axon rlr 120mm is it a good choice considering price quality?
yes. you can use the Suntour brand loyalty program which lets you return your old fork to them and get a massive discount on your new fork
Anything that says SR Suntour is meant for guys weighing 150-175lbs. When your older like me weighing over 200lbs. Its Rockshox Recons. Holds me up, keeps me grounded on trails and the legs are 32mm. Less and it becomes dangerous....yes Recon is $330.00 CAN but that's the cost of safety.
Az ott egy merida dual thrust?
Can't you just Increase the psi in the fork to make it stiffer?
I think hes talking about the fork flex.
Oki
I have a 4300.- MTB with that fork... quite upset to see it’s a budget one.... might complain soon then
I have it and it is luxurious, on my channel there are videos of it
is it gonna withstand wheelies with 90kg rider?
I'm about 95, I slam mine pretty hard. Hasn't broke in 200 miles of trails yet. Mine has the remote lockout, not sure if they are different in anyway
what is a relation between bodyweight and the wheelie? :D nothing
@@rcs2003 the more u weigh the harder it’s gonna be on the forks when u come down…
What about the sontour XCM 100 mm travel???
dont buy that
That's more of a pogo-stick than a fork.
@@stevensoares3532 still better than rigid if you’re not riding purely on the road
@@CrazyPanda688 Bike im interested in has judy air 100mm and is 1000e. Shoud i buy?
Upgrading a 150-200 dollar bike. Nice concept and very informative videos but let's face it almost nobody does that. People who did upgrade actually regret buying that more expensive bike...
That's not a 150-200 bike...more like 1000-1200. The fork costs that much
Or just buy a used rockshox or fox for the same money

Weight please
dondon Salanio he told you over 2 kilo
If you care that much about weight, not the fork for you
883rd,,,,,!!!
No matter who you are, you don't want to waste your hard earned money on Suntour Forks or cranks. They are for Walmart bikes only.
find on google suntour axon pls
It seems there's good forks in Suntour. Epicon is very popular for the relation performance-weight/price.
