rock shox pyslo?

[smitty]

Hey guys ive bean looking for a new fork recently and i thought a rock shox psylo would be pretty good for my p.2. Im a light rider around about 100 pounds and i do mostly trail riding, 4x racing(or at least i hope to continue to do so) and some light jumping. I hope to get better however and do more jumping. So do you guys think its any good And do you think the model (sl-xc-race) would make a big difference. thanks guys.

I've heard nothing but complains about those

Didn't you already make this exact same post?

The Psylos are okay forks. They're inexpensive and lightweight, and would work pretty well for a lighter-weight rider.

Don't bother with the Race model. Get the SL if you want the lockout/pseudo-compression-adjust. I ran the XC model for a while and, while I wasn't a huge fan of the fork, I really can't complain considering the price and weight. There are better forks on the market but be prepared to spend more money.

I weigh 160. My psylo lasted about 4-5 months before the rebound **** the bed. I didn't really beat on much either. I would say there are better options.

If you get a Psylo, make sure they're 2003 and up. The ones before felt like garbage. All the ones I felt after that felt nice. Don't get the one with the lockout, you'll never use it and it's a pain to rebuild if you get air in the system. Get the XC version.
