I can tell you that I had to call around to venders to get mine I went with fox resi and like them. You may find some are back ordered at a few placesss but another might have them in stock. I say just start calling around.

If cost isn't an issue, fox all the way. The 5100 are excellent for the cost, I love em! Fox are a bit more plush, and perform great at rougher/higher speeds.

I have the Fox monotubes on mine and they ride great. Only a couple bucks more a shock than the 5100s, but totally worth it. Everyone seems to compare the 5100s to the resavoir Fox which are a lot pricier, but fox makes a great monotube too.
