What do you wanna know about?

It's a 1999 K2 fork with 100 mm travel (if I remember correct) and K2 implanted the smart shock device from the 1998 noleen smart shock damper.
And like in the damper, the performance of the smart device wasn't worth talking about. That's the reason why I took out the 9 Volt battery from my smart shock. It was just additional weight.

Style factor: very high because pretty rare to get.
Performance: not bad, but it was expected to be better. At least other tele forks were better in the year 1999.

If you want something special: GET IT!

Cool! You pretty much summed up what I was looking for. Kinda neat, kinda not.

Thanks!
