Bomb proof fork, much smoother, stronger and much much lower maintaince than the boxxer WC that it replaced. This fork is too tall for most bikes. Its about a full inch taller than most 8 inch forks. This was not a problem for me as the demo 9 is designed around the original 888 which was also 1" taller than current 8 inch forks. A DHF7 will feel like more fork than most 8" forks and has roughly the same axle to crown height. The DHF8 is does a much better job of smoothing out terrain and keeping your front wheel glued to the ground than a boxxer or 40. If you dont mind the weight penalty and long AC its the best fork in its class.
