Is it possible to reduce the travel of Fox 34 Float forks, down from 160mm?

I know travel of the Fox 36 Floats can be adjusted using spacers, but I can't find any info as to whether a similar thing can be done with the Fox 34 fork.

I also know I could just look at the Fox 34 TALAS fork instead of the float, but is the TALAS mechanism as reliable as a straight-forward Float?

Best bet is to phone Mojo, TF or Loco.

Ive got the new 34 CTD 160mm floats and currently waiting on Mojo for the spacer kit to reduce them down to 150, possibly 140. Kit isnt due until October though which is a shame.

I’m sure I read a recent article that said the travel of the 34 Float could be reduced, but only by 10mm. Not sure if that applied to the 160mm model, the 140mm 29er or both. Don’t quote me on that though.

Yes the 34 float can be reduced but only by 10mm down to 150mm. I read that info when they were launched, can't recall the reason why.
Edit - that's the 26" 160mm travel version I'm referring to.
