Hopefully upgrading the damper on my 2017 Pike RC A2 boost to a 2.1 damper. Ordered from TF Tuned earlier today.

If that works, can I use the Pike charger to replace the motion control damper in my 2018 Revelation (also boost and 27.5) RC A1 ?

Cheers.

Paul

There are some oddities with respect thread pitch used on different model CSUs.

EG Pike & Yari dampers use a different pitch.

I'd be inlined to just ask TF Tuned or great out the big socket set.

The top cap threads will be the same. The thing that might snooker you will be the overall length of the damper tube. You would need to make sure it doesn't have any contact with the lower leg at full compression.

Thanks both ! Will see how I get on. If I compare them side to side it should be a start.

As long as the treads match you can run it. Make sure when the lowers are off that the damper shaft is longer than the air shaft when both are fully extended and you'll have no trouble at all. Nothings going to foul anything.

Looks like the 2.1 wasn't in stock, so have to hang on or cancel my order and get a refund ☹️. Might be a while before I work out whether it fits.
