As above really, i have a 2014 Pike which is coming up to service time. I'm happy to do it myself, but is it worth putting the new SKF stanchion and damper seals in it as announced [url= http://singletrackmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/rockshox-revamps-the-lyrik-fork-and-introduces-the-yari/ ]here[/url].

If it is, does anyone know where I can get a set from? I've looked around, but can't find a kit that has all of the seals included.

Yes it will be when they're available, some of the internals seals have been improved for reliability and the wipers will give a bit less friction, they're not available as yet though. We have them on order.

Any idea when they will be available?

My pikes are due a service and currently have push wiper seals fitted (I assume by the previous owner) although you can't really call them seals going by the amount of oil on the stanchions after a ride 😆
