It's for a Stanton Switchback and need to be 650b and non boost.
Running Lyriks with the luftkappe fitted on my enduro steed and they are ace.
What are people using on your hardtails ?

Either have the 160mm air shaft cut down or buy a 140mm one. I'm currently resisting this price, so far...
Marzocchi 350 CR, with travel reduced to 140mm. I've been running them on first a full sus, and now a hardtail for 2 1/2 years.
Bombproof, very stiff, plush, and relatively simple to maintain and fettle. Great forks 😀
I bought some almost new Yaris for almost £250 here and at that price they're hard to beat.
Can the frame take 160mm ? I have come to realise that the amount of travel is actually quite important and makes a difference through more air volume and the ability for the initial travel to be quite soft without bottoming out.
Actually run 160mm Yari on my Switchback with RMP ramp control fitted and plenty of sag
Those x fusion sweeps that are £250 new from bike discount
MRP Stage. Really capable forks with proper service intervals, and a doddle to set up with the ramp control.. I've got a brand new set of 2016 ones in a box if you're after.
Pike with luftkappe on my hornet
BOS 160mm on my switch back, did put Lyriks 160mm on when BOS were away for TLC.
Ran 350NCR's for a while on my Switchback; nicely made and looked good but I struggled with set up; either dead plush but bottomed out too easily or not enough sensitivity and better bottom out resistance on jumps etc.
Switched to some Yari's with a Luftkappe and have been really happy so far and I typically hate RS forks.
