So I got a brand new Demo 8 and it came with the 40 RC2.Well this is my second FOX product and again, right out of the store it was defective. Sent it back to FOX,it was missing a part,3 weeks later they fixed it and even put a Ti-spring in it.
My biggest concern about FOX before I bought the bike was the service. I live in Whistler and work on the North Shore so I ride my bike A LOT. Im afraid I might loose the fork for more than a month a few time during this summer since nobody wants to open those forks and of course , I’m not too ”keen” about that.
As anyone out there ever tried both fork? I like the stiffness of the FOX 40 but I also know that a little bit of flex( Boxxer) can also can get you a little bit more traction. I also have a pike air and I love the damping system which I believe is similar to the Boxxer, but the Pike in whistler as a lot of flex( I know its only SC but still) For me getting the Boxxer, service wouldn’t be a problem since Rock Shox have a tech rep in Whistler so it would be pretty quick.
Let me know what you guys think of that, should I sell the FOX or stick with it?At this point Im not concern about price...
thanks
