What's the Monkey's opinion on Fox air versus coil these days then?
Think I'm after a 160mm 36 but unsure if Vanilla or Float is the one to go for. Vanilla gives away nearly 0.5lbs but I would expect much better performance from it, is that a fair assumption? My feeling towards air forks (I've owned a 2008 Boxxer WC and currently have a 120mm Reba) is that they sit a long way into the travel when the going gets steep or under braking, has anyone really cracked this issue yet?
While we're at it, tapered versus 1 1/8th? Noticable difference?
Cheers,
Mark
