Wanting to get new forks for cross-country and some jumping (nothing huge) Not looking to spend too much probably like 100 pounds ($160). Quite like the look of http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=21571 those or http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13108 those.
Cheers

DJ3s would be fine for jumping but are crap for XC - they not much good at taking repeated hits and don't hav emuch in the way of compression or rebound tuning.
RS Darts would be a better choice in my opinion - decent enough for XC and could withstand the odd bit of jumping provided the landings aren't too harsh.
What bike is it for? £100 budget limits you a lot, but if you can't go above £100, I'd go for those Darts you were looking at.
