Hi, I have a 1992 GT Tequesta steel chromoly mountain bike. At the time, I spent like 70 bucks to get an RST suspension fork. I heard RST is good at making forks for motorcycle in Taiwan. It didn’t have springs and used some sort of rubber for the suspension.
I don’t know what happened, the last two years, the fork just sank. I can’t even see the rubber suspension anymore.
SO I don’t want to spend 0-300 on a new fork when I can buy a cheap bike at the dept store for that price. I saw a Rock Shox Dart 2 new for , yet that’s going to run me 0 total.
So I went to EBay and searched for RST forks and got a new one for . Here’s the link, what do you think? I’m not going to go serious biking, just around the lake and the street for fun.
I wanted to put a suspension fork on my specialized rock hopper mountain bike. I want this fork, and need to know if it will fit. I need legitimate answers
I ride paved trails mostly for exercise and recreation. Sometimes I do small jumps, so I like full suspension.
I’m accustomed to buying department store bikes. I was going to get a Mongoose from Wal-Mart for around 0, but I figured if I was going to spend that much, I might as well get something OUT of a department store with better components.
I came across Pinnacle Ouray bicycles. I like the disc brakes, the Shimano Tourney component (I’m aware it’s Shimano’s lowest component), the Rock Shox fork (I’m guessing it’s among Rock Shox lowest component), I like the Pinnacle Ouray bicycles over-all.
I wanted to try tubeless tires, unfortunately these bikes DO have tubes, but I can work with that. I’ve had nice experiences with the slime + tube tires to stop flats
Anyways, I’d like your input on if these bikes are a wise buy for the features.

I bought this used on ebay, Damn Stupid seller “TRUE_CYCLE” never described on the listing that the Fork leaked oil by the damper. I decided to rebuild it form scratch. It was all worth it, but I wont buy from TRUE _CYCLE seller on ebay any more. Well I won, I got to rebuild it and he refunded me , which I used for the rebuild kit, well, the fork oil is worth that, the kit . ROCK Shox Reba, Mountain Bike Fork.
