Is the SR Suntour XCR a good fork?
Excellent fork, saved a few ounces from the factory one. Very smooth ride and takes a beating. I don’t do any hardcore trails but do ride off road quite a bit and for a big guy (260lbs) this shock works perfectly! Good product, well made and easy to set up.
Which is better Suntour XCT or Xcr?
Registered. XCR is really similar to the XCM but is a lighter build, which, given the coil, functionally makes them very close. The XCT is almost a hybrid fork. The build is much less dialed, and it isn’t really meant for riding where the front wheel spends much time off the ground.
Who makes SunTour?
In 1988 the SunTour name was purchased and revived by Sakae Ringyo Company, (now owned by Mori Industries Inc.) with a capital investment of 45,000,000 NT$ in Tokyo, Japan, thus becoming SR-SunTour. The new SR-SunTour parts are not compatible with the original SunTour parts.

What is a preload adjuster on forks?
It’s simply the initial compression of the internal spring in the fork. The more it’s compressed, the stiffer the fork will feel. Bigger preload compresses the spring more, and so it’s best for heavier riders and/or people who need/prefer the stiffer ride (racers etc.)
