The crosslink is a short travel fork and the nr2 has rebound damping only.its a relatively old design too.Only you can decide!Measure your headtube and make sure that it is less than 130,if its loger than that you will need a "long" crosslink.Most of us  love the crosslink cos they were oem on our bikes!

Make sure the headtube on the old 930 will work with a "modern" fork.

I have a 920 Antelope and it has a 1" headtube.  If yours is the same then the fork won't fit at all.

Hi Harv! How have you been? I'm currently stuck in Omaha doing a rotation, but I did get to drive to Utah for the weekend... I'll be skiing there in 3 weeks!
