Was thinking of buying these forks but when researching I've found that a lot of people were having problems, not getting full travel and dual position not working correctly. Anyone got any experience of this?

I've got a pair and no issues here. Great fork. I guess it's still early days though, about 40 hours riding time?

Do they use the same system as the 2 step Lyrik?

Same here, ordered a 2011 WC Dual position. Read the reviews on the mtbr website and very nearly cancelled. Have a 2011 140 Talas RLC with Kashima and they are great, but went for a Revelation due to better stiffness for my SJ evo at 150mm. I am using them for the first time this week as I'm on the hardtail tomorrow. My final reasoning is that only the early ones had initial problems, and still under warranty.

It was early 2-step which had issues but they fixed that I thought duel air worked pretty well.

Thanks for the replies, I might take the plunge and get these forks then if it was only earlier types that had the problems

I bought some 2011 2 step Lyriks in May & they've been fine so far.
I was thinking about 2 position Revs for my next build - wheres the cheapest you've found them?

Cheapest I found was CRC, £575 but theres an extra 10% of everything today, so I've just ordered them, I pray they're not dodgy

TF say the dual position causes more issues and more to go wrong. I have the dual air RLT ti's and after 10 months hard use no issues whatsoever. I do the lower leg service once every couple of months and otherwise never touch them.
