Kleinserie läßt den Preis in die Höhe schiesen und der Name Foes kostet auch noch mal extra.
Foes hat mit Curnutt quasi das SPV erfunden und 5th und Manitou haben es nachgebaut.
Gabel wiegt mit Stahlfedern etwa 4,3 kg und mit Titanfedern bissl was über 4 kg laut Foes
Entweder die Leute lieben Curnutt, oder hassen es. Genau wie bei SPV.
Gibt auch genügend Leute welche die Gabel nicht mögen.

Zitat:I have the Foes XTD fork.It really depends on what you want in a fork .If you want all super plush and go through half your travel while sitting on it, get a 888.The XTD was VERY sticky until you get past the break in period of 2-4 hrs of actual DH runs.After that,it'll change your life.No more diving in corners,no more bobbing 4" of travel during a sprint ,no more bottoming.If you are a racer it's THEE fork.The thing I notice right off the bat was the lack of dive in braking or in corners,and I could now keep my head up and look where I was going and not have to compensate my body positioning for the fork.It's a little less supple on the smaller stuff because of the Curnutt,but the benefits quickly won me over .This is coming from somebody previously would run my settings SUPER soft. It's definitely a fork that feels like no other,but once you figure out that you are going faster with more control and less effort it's worth the extra denero.The faster you go the better it works(really,no kidding).And Brent was very interested and helpful in making sure I got it setup right and understood the how's and why' of it.Oh,yeah,8.5" of travel.30 mil through axle.22.25 from center of axle to underside of lower crown.Only negative would be narrow turning radius,but hasen't been as much of a problem as I thought it would've. Just for reference ,previous forks were:04' 888,02 Dorado and 00'Boxxer. ~Sorry ,for not being funny.But this a serious topic,I hold close to my heart.There are people's lives at stake here.
