I'd have to agree on the Suntour fork. Ugh. That is the stocker on my Specialized.

I honestly am thinking of selling the thing. I wondered why my bike ghost shifted when I gave it some torque....well I figured it out today. This thing has way too much flex when you mash the pedals hard. So much that I have even caused my speed/cadence sensor to hit the magnet on the wheel at times. Due to the frame flex, I am CONSTANTLY adjusting the rear-d like every 2 weeks. That is just unacceptable. I like the bike, but I shouldn't need to give it that kind of attention.

Maybe I am just riding it harder than Specialized thought people would at that price level? I thought the fork was bad, but this frame junk is even more annoying. Makes the fork look nice...
