Which year better for me??

Post by Ryan »

do you think i would be better with a pair of 96 forks or 99's. Im looking at these (96's) because the stock spring rate is .39 and my weight is reccommend to have springs of .398 so i would be really good with the springs. The 99's have a stock spring rate of .42 so that is a bit past what i would need. Im not sure which to get. Was there any difference in the tech besides the diameter, and would a wheel from a 99 work on 96 forks along with a '99 axel? thanks. Which year would be better for trail riding??
