We wanted to find out how the white Italian fork, which is now also available with black stanchions, performs in continuous use. The fork has now clocked up over 4000 kilometres under all conceivable conditions and still responds very smoothly. Also pleasing: there is no sign of bush play. Thanks to the internal adjustment, we rode the fork at 120-140 millimetres. The only drawback: the negative spring recently broke due to a material defect and had to be replaced under warranty.
