I'm going to have to replace my fork soon; hopefully after my next pay check, but I might wait until it warms up a little.

I'm looking at a few around $250 or so..

Manitou Stance Static, $250 at pricepoint, including an FSA headset
Manitou Black Elite, $250 at Cambria Bike
Marzocchi Dirt Jumper III, $200 at Cambria Bike
Marzhocci Dirt Jumper I, $300 at Cambria Bike (a bit more than I wanted to spend, but is it worth it?)

I've heard things about most of them; this is what I can think of about them:
The DJ3 is bad for trail riding, since it's only of any use for one hit and takes a while to recover (whatever the right word would be)
The DJ1 is a bit better (but is it any faster?)
The Black Elite - not really sure about it...
The Stance Static - I've heard some good things, and it's on the P1, so it should be decent, right?


Yes, I did use the search function... I stated above that I read about these forks, this is more of a direct comparison between the 4 that I was looking at.
