You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I see a lot of questions on this type of stuff, and being a bit of a saddo I created myself a spreadsheet to compare various attributes before buying my last set of forks. It's not comprehensive but perhaps does contain the usual suspects:
Let me know if you spot any errors.
That's actually perfect for me at the minute. Really helpful. Cheers mate.
Spotted one myself already!: Lyric RC2 DH A-C of 555mm is at 170mm not 160mm.
No worries my friend. If you fancied another drive over you could compare the Slants versus a set of Revelation RLs for yourself, I have both.
Could you add a column for the 170 forks? Seems madness not to have it in there. Is the 55CR the same dimentions as the 55 RC3 Ti?
160mm Pikes would be helpful - if you're not doing owt 🙂
Slant weights look fine to me - my DLA are 1963, but that's with a bit of steerer cut off 🙂
So looking at that, regarding a-c, slants are fine on the meta am and sx if you compare them to the stock fox forks on full builds?
*asks what size wheels these forks are for*
*runs away before the shouting starts*
160mm Pikes are the same as DP Pikes @ 160 i.e. 542mm 🙂
They're all std mountain bike forks so 26", or are you suggesting that there's more than one wheel size?! 😀
Yep, i've ordered the Slants now so all is well, i really appreciate the help guys.
daveh thanks again.
Damn you!*
This has done nothing to quell my burning desire to replace the Rev RLs on my Heckler with DLA Slants as I can happily live with a less than 200g weight increase.
(*Thank you!)

😆 Its a service I provide!
Edit: Oh, and you should do it btw, far superior forks!
Very useful thankyou! 🙂
That's the most unusual bicycle I've seen in a long time! Where do the wheels go? When you building the beasty up?
no wheels mate, you rock back on the chair then forward onto the forks 🙂
This weekend, except i need a mech and seatpost.
