I really want some pikes but can't find a set of 150 mm in budget. I did find these 160mm for pretty cheap though.

Someone must want a bargain.

Get the 160mm and change the air spring to 150. Loco was saying they're due in stock soon and should only be around £30

That is for the RC version, not the RCT3 version, if its bike-discount you are referring to.

I'd spend a bit more and get the RCT3 version too based on others recommendations of them... and i've very nearly pressed the buy button several times.

I fancy the RCT3 160 dual position version... am I right in thinking these could be wound down to anything between 130 and 160mm, so I could set them up so that max travel is 140mm for example, and adjust to 160mm for days out at the trail centre? 😆

Creamegg I'm pretty sure it's just two set positions. You push down and lock it at say 130mm then release back to 160mm.

That's what my revs did anyway.

from RS website...

It changes your fork’s travel up to 30mm

to me that offers adjustment of anywhere between 0-30mm. Anyone else able to confirm?

Dual position with 30mm difference.

Unless they changed it from last year.

Yep. My 26" 150mm RCT3 Pikes with a 195mm steerer weighed 1801g.
In comparison the Revs they replaced (Tapered 150mm RCT3 195mm steerer) weighed 1727g.

not U-turn

I need 150mm, someone has found me some though.

The RC just looked like a bargain for someone.
