Hi, does anybody have any info. regarding the availability of a 51mm offset fork in this travel range. Lots of 100mm forks seem available in the UK, but little in the way of 120-130mm?
Ideally I'd be after a Reba rct3 120 or a revelation. Rockshox seem to do them, but finding them for
Sale anywhere is proving difficult!

They come on the new salsa horsethief but not seen any other 130s
I have a set of fox ctd 120 forks with 51 off set. They normally come on treks.
For RS you'll probably need to buy a new air shaft and change it over, shaft is only 30 quid or so and I gather its a fairly straightforward diy job. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7WcCIFguChA
I have a 140 pike awaiting conversion.
Ive seen the Germans selling 130 pikes as standard but the lead time was long and they were much more expensive than sourcing any other travel cheap and tweaking yourself.
I have a 140mm Revelation in 51mm offset.
It's adjustable with travel spacers, but the newer solo air models are not so easy to adjust IIRC. Try to get a NOS or s/h dual air Rev if you're stuck maybe?
I've got a 130mm Revelation sat here right now, surplus to requirements (bought it for a frame I've subsequently sold, and new frame warrants beefier forks). It's brand new, in its box, 51mm offset, uncut steerer, 15mm axle etc. RRP is £600 on these. If you're interested, I'm just looking to get back as much as I can for them to put towards a Pike or an MRP Stage to suit my new frame.
Mboy, I could potentially be interested in those. Are they 2014 forks? Which model of rev and,crucially, how much do you want for them. Email is mje25@icloud.com if you want to drop me
A mail. Cheers Mark
They're 2015 forks, will drop you a line when I get home and have consulted the online prices for a guide...
Just get 140s and have the air shaft changed - loco did mine.
This may be a daft question, but I'm assuming this will work on any rockshox fork. Can you up travel with this
Method also? For eg upping a pair of 100mm Reba's to 120?
Cheers

Just sent you an email
With regards to upping the travel, sometimes yes, sometimes no is the answer. It's not very clear cut I'm afraid, but you can always shorten the travel, but not always extend it.
