Air fork suggestions for cross country
Picked up a mountain bike on craigslist recently and it has Suntour XCT fork on it. It seems OK, but I'd like to upgrade it to something more robust/adjustable.
The bike came with v-brakes, but I put a disc brake on the front so I shouldn't have compatibility problems with the nicer forks that are disc only. The fork needs to meet these specs:
*For 26er
*Air
*1 1/8 steerer tube (no taper)
*9mm QR
*80-100mm travel
*Preferably white in color since the current fork is white.
I really don't have a price range. I've been looking online and seen forks from $100 to $800+. I'd like to consider all options at this point and I'll decide how much I want to spend later. I'm not worried about resale value of the bike, nor am I concerned about whether it's cheaper to buy a new bike vs. upgrading this one. I definitely want to keep this one, regardless.
Thanks.
