Race = Boxxer Team.

Race/drops/freeride = Shiver.

 

[man]

SHIVER, SHIVER and SHIVER :lol:

you still havent decided? daz has sold his teams so if your thinking teams look else where

the shivers are better anyways. but the teams were a bargin at 1500

Well, I used to own a Shiver (and rode another guy's one today), and having compared them directly to all three Boxxers, I would say take the Shiver... bombproof, low maintenance, you can set em up to be soft but unbottomable (same with any Marz) which is much more difficult with Boxxers. And I say this with complete disregard to what type of riding you're going to be doing, because I would prefer the Shivers in any situation.

i'd say shivers. buy mine, 2003 dc shivers, about 6 months old, few scratches, recent service, good as, offers around $1500.

sorry bout the for sale thing in this topic, just trying to get a free plug.

boxxers/shivers, i own both, they are basically the same shit different smell, shivers are inverted and yeh they do flex when u put your front whell between ur legs and twist, but name a fork that doesnt. yeh so like i said i own a set of 03 shivers, and i just got rid of a set of 02 teams, and yeah they are the same shit, it really comes down to personal preference.

make an offer on the forks, as im a litlle flexible.
