    Is it possible to reduce travel from 130mm to 120mm internally somehow? Just bought a Whyte 19 frame that is optimised for 120mm forks.

    Cheers.

    yes you can reduce them have a look at the Sram/ Rockshox website

    But will 10mm realy matter

    The 19 was designed arround the Mav SC32 forks, I have both mavs and revs when set up with the negative chamber pressurised the revs and mavs are exactly the same length 490mm axel to race

    build it ride it and enjoy

    You can reduce the travel on just about any fork (and particularly air ones as there's not spring length to complicate things) if you do a bit of tinkering and put in a say 10mm longer top out bumper/spacer to restrict how far the fork can extend.

    As above though, for 10mm, I wouldn't really bother – just run a bit more sag by upping the -ve pressure by 5-10 psi.

    Okay…I'll try out different pressures at 130mm and see how it rides. Looking forward to building it up 😀

    BTW which 19 model do you ride, mine is the alloy version.

    Sorry I do not own a 19 ( but my mate dibbs has 3 alloy/ alloy+carbon /Ti) I ride a 456 with Mavs and a Cotic Simple with rev's
