The Revelation adds travel adjust and platform adjustment... neither of which I care for, but you might.
I recently ordered a Rockshox Domain for my freeride bike. It's got a similar Motion Control damping system that seems to be pretty solid. My AM bike will likely get a Vanilla RLC when the time comes to blow some $$.
i know

i was just surprised that given the same price being offered to me (brand new rs revelation vs. bargain brand new fox vanilla r) my bike buddies were telling me to get the fox (?). this despite the lack of features compared to the rs. since i'm not one to buy something because of brand alone, i had to ask around.
anyway, i got the frame already. just waiting for a chris king headset at the lbs and i'm good to go.
and i've decided to get the revelation

thanks for the feedback.
