Customer review: RockShox Recon Silver RL (Best Bang for Your Buck)

The review was sent over by a good customer of ours Arnel. Arnel recently upgraded to a Recon fork and was kind enough to tell us about the switch to this sweet Rockshox Recon Silver RL. Let's take a look.

Worldwide Cyclery is awesome! Item arrived on time and as described. RockShox Recon Silver RL provides a plush ride found in more expensive shocks, it is just a little heavier for the lower price. I went back and forth between the Reba and Recon. The Recon has many of the Reba features, definitely a step up for me, and the right shock for my bike.

The star nut is not installed BUT is included with the fork, along with some replacement seals and internal components for when you need to do maintenance on the fork. I like the adjustable air feature, that the tubes are bigger but lighter! This fork saves me over a pound on my 27.5. It was about $200 cheaper than the Reba. Obviously, spend more, get even lighter, however, best bang for the buck. I would definitely recommend this shock and supplier to my friends.
