Used Rock Shox

But I bought a new SID Team a couple weeks ago. I don't ride off cliffs or
anything. I'm not a hammer either. It will hold up for cross country riding,
right?

The phrase 'handles like a wet noodle' is often associated with SIDs...

Just the fact that you equate doing 3-4' drops with riding hard.

No sense in installing something that's already worn out.

Thanks!


Well, not to worry....Rock Slops come worn out right out of
the
box.


Does this mean there's no break-in period?

You have health insurance, right?

Not at the moment, why?!



I;ve had a set of Mag21's for 6 years now, and it took a Toyota minivan to
finally break them. I put them through quite a bit with 2-3' drops and
other punishment.. never had anything break on them.

Just like anything else, people have their favorites. I had good luck with
RS, which is why I bought another one.

That's a pity. Oh well, hopefully you ride/live near one of those
teaching
hospitals.

The trail is in fact very close to one, but what do you suggest I do to
avoid their services?

Trash canMarzocchi! HTH! ',;~}~
