Hello Head-Fiers. Please forgive me if I use the wrong terminology, as I am not very knowledgeable about biking. I am looking to upgrade my suspension fork in my bike, as the current one that came stock is pretty terrible and has lost a lot of its "stiffness". I would like to keep it as cheap as possible. Pretty much any fork will be an upgrade over what I have now. I will be riding this on dirt, gravel, and pavement. Maybe some simple XC type stuff but no crazy singletrack or big drops..
My bike is not the best but I am satisfied with it for now. I can't upgrade the frame/other components. With budget forks I know I will not be getting anything amazing. I just want something that will not bottom out on me constantly like my current fork does now, and will last a couple years until I can upgrade the entire bike.
Here are my requirements:
- must be compatible with V-brakes
- must have a lockout
I'm looking at RockShox Tora 302 U-Turn, and a RockShox Tora SL SE. Would these work? What about air vs. spring? Please let me know if you need more info from me. Thanks, and I'm looking forward to some great advice!
