I just got a 2004 stumpjumper I really like the bike but the fork is a bit rigid for my style and weight (225lbs). its gotta go. I recently put a rockshox 2001 psylo xc on my wife's bike and upgraded it to u-turn capabilities. should i trade with her or or wait to by a fox talas or trade until I can afford to grab the talas 2005.
the black felt fine when I test rode it but after a while the action was'nt as smoothe the psylo race on my hardrock.
suggestions

Fox!!!!!!
Maybe look at a Talas or Vanilla... super plush and long travel.

how much for the black?
The Fox Talas RLC is absolutely the best trail fork out there right now. and i'm not one to rave.
