Looking at servicing 2015 Pikes, manual just says used Rockshox 0w-30. Here:
They list 3 different types though? Whats the difference in the wt values?

Thats the one for the lowers (not the damper)
heavier weight means a 'slower' oil - but the oil in the lower leg of a Pike is just a small amount for lubrication, so it doesn't matter a huge amount. I just use whatever I've got kicking around - which happens to be 10w at the moment...
by the way - just google 0W-30 engine oil - you can get a litre for the same price as you can get 120ml RS branded stuff....
same with brake fluid, etc....
Right! cheers. 😀
Wt is a measure of viscosity. Pikw use nice runny oil for maximum slipperiness (and splash lubrication) make sure you use a lubricating oil.
