Hi all, i have a Whyte 905 (2022) which has RockShox Pikes on it currently set at 130mm. Iv noticed it looks like they can be upgraded to 140mm as it showing this on the stanchion. Do i need something like this to do it and is it an easy change?

No, that is the same as the one you already have. You need a 140mm airspring for a 27.5 fork. If you plug in the serial number of the fork (on the back of the crown) into https://trailhead.rockshox.com/en/search/, then it will tell you the part numbers you need for upgrades etc.

Yes, quite easy and similar to an airspring service. You will need circlip pliers and suspension grease then after that as per a lowers service. Rockshox have some good step by step videos.
