anyone ever put a 200m front end on a 200s. I'm trying to get my 200s going, and the forks are pretty shot, I have a nice set of 200m forks, but they are wider, and the brake setup is reversed. I also have the 200e, but the front end on that is perfect. How much of an upgrade are the m forks over the E forks. Is it an easy swap?

should bolt on w/o any issues. the brake is onthe opposite side if I remember correctly. but as far as mounting, should fit. you have to sue the forks, and tree from the 200m.

if you have an @ why drop a heavier less moving set on it? the 20m has the smae as the 200e forks and they offer less dampening and less movement. the 200s has way nicer and smoother riding. you can find some good 200s stuff on ebay cheap.

the 200m suspension is not the same as the 200e, the width is the same but the suspension itself is the same as the 200s. I'll post some pics later.
