I don't know anything about forks, except that my old judy rox shox is crap. I'm about 195 lbs and ride cross country. I'd like something fairly light with good performance. These were all on sale, but I don't know which (if any) would be good for me.

By the way, the prices are in pounds. I want to stay under $300-$350 at the very most so under 200 pounds.

My 2002 Psylo SL has been a good match for my Oz, with 5 inches for descending and 3 inces for climbing.



Lasted for 2 years trouble free untill the cartrigde seals started leaking and failed overall. I am having ID replacement cartridges made by Stratos installed this weekend. Will see if the inertia valve theory lives up to the hype. Should be back in the saddle soon.
