Reckon I'll be needing one of these if my 130mm forks wont work with the new build I'll be doing in the next week or two.

Ideally I'll be trying a lightish build so can anyone tell me the 'proper' weights of air pikes and air 140mm maxle revs.

Yes, I could do with losing a few, well more than a few pounds but if there is quite a difference in weight in the forks I'd prefer the revs….

Thanks in advance

Well I can offer you a pretty accurate weight for the Pikes as I just happened to have given them a weigh on my digital scales…

RS Pike U-Turn Air 454 195mm steerer: 2012g (No Maxle but with Hed Dr installed) + 143g Maxle = 2155g Total

just to confuse you further 🙂

cheers nuke.
rs, I would be looking at 2nd hand but would be interesting to see if the forks did actually weigh that? 😉

Yeah, Sektor looks the new pike….

I like the look of that fork… 32mm stanchions, 140mm travel… Hang on, I have a set of Pikes anyway.

if it helps:

the 2009 Revelation seems to be a Pike with thinner steerer tube and a maxle lite – good deals can be found BNIB if you search around

that Sektor looks nice – whats with no black forks these days????

hi Si!

Word up Martin…. When you over here next??

dunno – its been too long. I wanna do another dry dusty mega ride! I'll text/call when next headed your way, i've popped down a few times without a bike (funeral blah blah blah). I see you have your Patriot up and running!!! Hope to see you soonisher.

Anyone got a maxle rev air fork they can weigh?

I've got one which I'll be taking off a bike over the weekend, but I have no scales! sorry

I found a site called 'weight weenies' but I don't know how acurate the figures are or if they have the stats for the components you want. It looks reliable to me.
