Dirt Jump Forks

Hey peeps!!

I've recently bought a DJ frame and built it up using some old Rock Shox Dart 1 forks that I had lying around but after using them for a bit with the preload wound right off, they're just not soft enough to absorb any heavy landings.. I do a mix of dirt jumps, street and BMX so I land to flat quite often!!

I'm looking into getting some air forks so I can adjust the pressures in them to suit what I'm doing but there is so many to choose from and I can't decide!! I have a budget of about 250 to 300 quid but as always, if something comes highly reccomend, I might stretch the budget a little!!

Hopefully someone can help me choose some decent ones or just reccomend ones that might suit my riding style!! It would be greatly appreciated!! :D

Thanks in advance people!!

BMX don't have any suspension?

Anyway, I wouldn't want to use Dart forks for that type of riding either. Not because they're not active enough, but because I value my face. Marzocchi DJ1 or DJ2, RS Argyle etc. Should easily get something second hand for £200. I'd think about getting a bolt-through setup though - I.e. maybe budget for a new front wheel too :)
