Hello, I'm new to the forum. I have a question to those of you that have run the 16' 4CS fork and the 17' airfork.
I have a 16 ktm 350xc-f that I ride off-road and am planning to race this weekend at a hare scramble. The forks have been valved and have gold valves in them etc..... but everybody knows these forks are in no way amazing.
I also have a set of stock 17' 350 sx-f air forks. Question is; are the airforks better than the valved 4CS??
Any thoughts on these would be greatly appreciated!

i cant believe the 4CS are such junk!
i have a set of WP cone valve on my sx-f and nothing can ever compare to those.....
The Shop
I have a friend that spent most of this season on the AER CV fork, without going in on the details he changed to the traditional spring CV last week.
I found two great deals (imo), 2016 CV spring forks for $2.2k and a set of 2017 öhlins forks + shock for $3k. Can not decide... One way would be to get the Öhlins inserts via RG3 however after setting them up with the Swedish supplier it will end up costing between $1.8-2.5k anyways, however he does offer great support from what my friends tell me.
I have messaged a couple of retailers in Sweden about both the CV spring forks and the Öhlins inserts, would be nice to test them beforehand tho.
