Title: what do you guys think of the noleen mega fork dea
Post by: bayarearider on November 27, 2003, 04:32:06 am: i am just curious as to what you guys think about the 2001 noleen mega air fork for $144.99 shipped from ediscountbike.com?

Is this too high of a price to pay for this fork?

are there better forks out there for the same price?

happy thanksgiving!

The only thing you might need extra is a lube gun to grease the bushings and a pump to pressurize it. I believe that RST still sells the same or nearlly the same fork under the name "Aerosa". I like doing business with Mr. Gibbs. I don't think you can go wrong for that price. Dan

i'm pretty sure it is being a 2001 model, if i was ordering it, i'd drop an email or call to be sure.

I'm awfully partial to the Marzocchi stuff. My Mega NotsomuchAir therefore is sitting in my garage just in case a friends fork dies ;)
