hey guys, i been trying to find some actual solid information by Fox 36 RC owners about how they perform, i've obviously looked up the reviews but didn't really supply enough of what i'm lookin for.
ATM i ride a Yeti ASX with 04 888R Fork with 05 RC internals + Low speed compression sleeve, with flat crowns and it is still to raked for my liking, i'm lookin to drop some travel, some weight, and down to a single crown. For my town 8 inch forks are actually to much, and i'm more looking to step up my trick bag, rather than my drop amounts.
The thing i'm worried about switching from the 888 is, am i gonna horribly regret it lol, i'm looking to have a better pedalling less bob fork on the front which i know the 36 will do, but i'm also trying to keep the plushness of the ride *which is retardedly plush atm* as close as possible to what it currently is with a couple flicks of a knob. Also durability i broke the 888 about a week after i bought them lol, biggest drops i do are 12-13 feet and i dont have any real desire *or even the location in my city* to go much bigger than that. I'm wondering if the Fox 36RC2 is basically gonna be able to hold up to me, as well as not make me wish i still had the 8 inch squishy on the front There will be an occasional Whistler + Sunpeaks riding, there is a local lift access hill in my city but it'll still be fairly easy to clear everything with a SC i'm sure, i'd say i'm a reasonably smooth rider, but than again i'm a clumsy bastard so sometimes i'll go all retarded, and prey that i dont snap the lil SC lol. sorry i blabber a bit
