the lefty is starting to look like the one to go for.

only thing thats worrying me is the performance, the model i might be getting is the jake, dont want to get it and ride and find out it feels s**t.

also, still a little worried about the strength of a lefty. probably fine, but i dont just jump, i do dh and and 4x and everything, few drops and that

Got to be the Pikes.
Leftys are like novelty condoms, fun the first time, but then they just get annoying.

I'd say get the pikes marty. Like mark said, they are real nice forks, and his did feel like boxxers, just with less travel, so that isn't bad. Also srtong as anything and wil work on your wheel. Quality forks IMO.
