I had the same dilemma couple of months back. Went with the xx sids. Great fork. No regrets. But its a personal preference thing. Not a whole lot between them.
Thanks for the reply OZ, yea my head is fractured trying to decide. I've always ran with fox and I love the way the handle, however I'm forever servicing them.
So I thought I'd give the Sids a try, have yo noticed and flex on the forks?
No hassle with seals. Had to get upper replaced as they were creaking which is a common issue on 29ers. They are lovely 18months of abuse and still good
I have a pair of x fusion velvets and can honestly say they match my rebas easily. The X fusion "slide" 29ers are a great deal and get great reviews. Not as light as rock shox, but at a fraction of the price
