Victory rd
I like the Victory. It has a very solid no nonsense feel. That said it still is below a high end or even mid range Suntour of the same era. It's not quite as fast and not as positive either. You might not even notice the shift and readjust thing ... it's so minor anyway, but the Victory will still feel a bit like a step down from a Superbe Suntour. For some bikes, I'd still choose the Victory ... like my Italian Gios that I downloaded photos of today.
