S&m
Are S&M forks guaranteed for life? I was thinking about getting the XLT fork, and it would be critical to know if they are guaranteed for life or not. If not, then I guess the Odyssey Dirt Fork would not be a bad backup.

Yes, I know the Odyssey fork did, I just did not know if the XLT did because it is very light (I believe it is the lightest fork on the market). Thanks.

S&M and Odyssey forks both have warrantys, i dont know if there for life though, but i do know that your not going to bend or snap one, so it shouldnt be a problem.

For the millionth time - a lifetime warranty is usually for the life of the product, not your lifetime. Think about it.

Odyssey has better customer service. both companys make great products.
I've seen both forks break too. no part is indestructable.
