Currently have a spare set of maxle Revs in the loft and Fox QR15 F120s on the bike.

Can't help wondering how the trance X would fair with 20mm more up front?

Anyone done it?

If so how does it ride does it ruin its climbing ability?

as much as im trying to work out how to buy your forks i gotta say giants are known for being under forked the anthem came with 80mm in uk but ran great with 100 and was even sold with 100 in nz as standard. Ive heard trance runs great at 140 in fact better than at 120 if you google you'll prob see on there mate i remember seeing lots when i looked at bigger forks on my old anthem

Had a Trance X0 which came with F120's replaced with 140mm Revs with Maxle which made the bike so much better IMO, do it.
