im looking at taking the DJ3 (100mm) off of my azonic SH and want to install a 6"+/- coil fork that will adjust hight if i want it to......
so i came across this Rock Shox Domain-302 Coil U-Turn '07 (105mm-160mm) on the jenson website for $550+/- will this be a good fork for a 280# rider? it will be used for XC, AM, and playing around at the locak 4X track.

i have a buddy who is running that on his sx trail. he loves it but there is some flex in the seals/bushings during wear in (only when topped out so in the travel it is not noticeable)

Check out go-ride.com for a lower price on the 302. But I'd definitely look into the 318 with the motion control dampening. It's only a little bit more more money compared to the overall purchase price and the motion control dampening is a more versatile setup.

Their real nice but i kinda like the pikes better , if you just looking at rock shox.
Look around for a z1 or 150mm 66. I'm a marz kinda guy .

At 225 lbs I know this is just so true.
I like the White Bros Flow series. We have really good pricing for them at www.gravityworxracing.com as well
