any body running a soul with a pike??
would love to see a piccy if so

Don’t start that again – the designer won’t be happy unless you promise to never run it above 130mm !

I miss her i do 🙁

im not going to admit to anything haha

Front impact head tube removal is pretty obvious so I doubt there’ll be an issue warranty wise ie you won’t get one ;0)

Isn’t Pikes on Souls the law?

run at 120mm most of the time

so the big question! soul or prince albert ?

PA and Soul are totally different beasts; Soul is lighter and sprightlier – PA is heavier physically and on the trails. (Yes, I’ve had both.)

But then the PA is almost twice the price!

isnt the soul twice the price?

im thinking the soul, so could you still climb okay with the pikes on the soul ?

It’ll climb ok, but better with u turn..

How about Pike on a Soda? I’m wondering about swapping to an ’08 Maxle Pike at 130mm…

Yup, got that the round way wrong!

Don’t you mean half the price?

Ooops

Great pic Sharki. Riding in the Lake District again is high on my wish list. Great fun first time, but a great carry not ride.

Oh, and Travel adjustable(90 – 130) is the best thing I ever did bike wise:

Never ridden the lakes, plan too but maybe not this year 🙁

Where is that then, ‘cos it sur look like it?

I’ve a 16″ Soul sitting in my garage.
Was planning to swap all the kit from my Enduro over this evening but am going to hold off till after Tuesday’s trip to Nant-y-Arian & MachX.
Looking forward to trying it out.
Will post a pic when its built.

If it’ll go on a Soul, it’ll go on a Soda. The geometry’s the same.

Sorry Sharki, embarassing for me then. Must’ve ridden less than 10 miles away. Sure looked more Lakes to me. Like I said, great pic though.

Indeed, managed to prise it from the old buggers fingers.
Shame you cant make Tuesday mate, should be a good day.

Used to run coil Pikes @ 120mm on mine. They were awesome. Then I got all weight weenie and swapped them for some Pace RC41 bolt throughs. 1.5lb lighter, but I still miss the Pikes 2 years on…
