I though you could only go to 110mm with the all travel adjust system but it ought to say on the SRAM website.

The SRAM site is saying 80/100/120 so you might be in luck.

I bought a 09 reba from merlin at 100mm and asked my LBS to look into upping to 120mm (reasons too complicated to explain now) and they said no it wasn't possible- the forks came with spacers but only to reduce to 80mm and the damper unit wasn't long enough - perhaps as they were OEM?

I just (today) had my 08 reba race's adjusted to 115 by taking out the spacers - TF Tuned say all Rebas (08)are 115mm - 2 spacers = 85mm - 1 spacer = 100mm 0 spacers = 115mm

I presume it's the same for 09's but 80,100,120

Yes it can be done you just need to strip them down for a full service and remove the 20mm plastic spacer.

Go to SRAM site and look for dealers technical manuals
