Hi All
I am going to get myself some Reba's this week and just wanted to know if there are any issues with them before I do. Also, what are better Team or Race? And could someone recomend a shock pump as I don't have one.
Cheers All

They are a great and reliable fork. The Team has the better Blackbox damper - worth the extra if you can afford it. Any shock pump will do, you can pick them up for less than 20 quid if you shop around.

Cheers mate. Thought the blackbox was better. I have found both Team and Race for the same so will go for the team.

Does anyone know if the Xloc system can be fitted to the 09 Reba's?

I have the 09 Reba Teams. They're awesome. Got them for less than the On-One shop from Merlin due to the headtube being already cut (to ironically the perfect length for the NRS).
I have lots of bikes! |
