Hey guys, looking for a fork upgrade for my little 27.5 hard tail. The XC30 is a weeeeee shit heavy and I've been having itches for a while now.

So basically I'm narrowing it down to:

Reba RL 2015
SID RCT3 Solo Air

Two are similarly priced. Is the SID RCT3 that much better?

if u like comfortable riding, go with reba. if u like performance, sid. my friend owned both. he felt the reba was plush. sid stiffer, maybe coz meant for racing.

stiff is nice. I climb most of the time for 'training' (suffering), I could use some stiffness on the fork.

Ahh, the SID sure is tempting for all the good reasons laugh.gif Hope it's the latest model (HAHA)

Thanks for the offer bro, but unfortunately I'm on a QR 9mm so it would be daft for me to get yours.
