youre too small for a monsterT or a shiver. You'd get thrown around by it.

2000-2002 boxxers are fine forks. 2003 suck since the internals blew allll the time.

I'd recommend a 2004 SuperT or a 2000-2002 Boxxer and some time to learn how to rebuild it (very quick process).

You think so? A Monster is what, 3 pounds heavier, does that make a differance? I cant get a new fork, I don't have enough money for that, and I'm scared about getting a Boxxer, I don't like problems...The reason I want the Monster is because that thing ain't breaking, and its simple... I'm small but I'm not weak, which makes me confident that I can still throw it around.
