Looking to upgrade my 150 Pike to a 160. Bought one from Biketart via their eBay store but order was cancelled due to not being able to get hold of stock. Contacted them and they said they actually could get one by 9th April and order was reinstated. Anyway order cancelled again today so going to give up on that one. Struggling to find them anywhere else apart from in the States... anybody else had trouble finding one?

I thought the new Airshafts were backward compatible, but the Jtech advert says:

For fitment to all 2018+ RockShox PikeB1/Revelation Debonair forks.

Fitment is for both 27.5" and 29" wheel sizes

Presumably if they are backward compatible the different lengths which effect travel between wheel size is still relevant and not mentioned on the JTech advert?

so which B1 airshaft is needed for 140mm travel on a original 2014 Pike 27.5 fork?

Sorry @BIFTH we ordered those in months back for people wanting to upgrade after the LT linkage was released - no discounts Im afraid.

What an excellent idea!

@benpinnick no problem Ben, if the Biketart one doesn't come off (still haven't been refunded, so it might still happen!) I'll order from you anyway (your delivery costs are a lot less than J-Tech!). Might be interested in a linkage as well - I see they're in stock sometime in June - would these be out and delivered by early July?
