[#2364883]

My mate has an 08 Pro Carbon Enduro and his forks are forked; what alternatives should he consider? I remember the axle-crown height is different for the E150 to most forks.

Was the reason I handed back my '07 Enduro Comp; lovely bike but forks needed a strip every other ride.

What about a Fox 36 float, nice and light, stiff, and you can drop the travel with spacers if you feel the need
I've got a pitch which is similar to the enduro, fitted with 160mm 36talas and I don't feel the need to drop the travel when climbing

Khani,

Cheers. Out of interest, how do you rate the pitch and what kind of riding is it used for?

I love my pitch, I use it for scaring myself silly, it's not really built light though coil shock ect, more for mucking about, I've got a old hl 5spot for longer xc stuff

I put some Lyrik Coil U-Turns forks and Fox RP23 rear shock on my Enduro SL Pro and it's a much improved bike for it - much better quality of suspension compared to the Spesh AFR stuff. Highly recommened upgrade, I also put some Roval Traversee wheels on it and that's a huge improvement of the OEM DT Swiss wheelset that came on the bike, also highly recommended.

I ditched those forks for Van36's, I think the crown to axle was the same if not a few mm shorter than the E150 but with 10mm more travel

The Pitch is definitely a recommended bike.
