Looking at my old 2004 fox's that served me well over the years. They are battered.
So out with the old and in with the new. Looking at rev's in either 140 or 150mm. Will it make much difference.? Does anyone run 150 or is it just overkill.?
Well it is designed to take them, seeing as 6" is 150mm.
But I've never tried forks over 130mm on mine.
I run 150mm revs 20mm maxle one's on my 456Ti and love it.
Climbs good and descends well.
Never ran it with any other forks so can't help with any other views.
I run 120mm forks on mine and it is sweet on both the climbs and decents, I have no desire to go longer, my mate runs 100mm and he is happy
I know of one guy with a Ti456 and he went from 150mm forks to 100mm forks and prefers it with less travel
designed to take it. but you won't notice the difference.
I'd go for whatever fork is better value/favourite colour.
to be honest it'll also depend on what amount of sag you run on the fork as to how the bike would handle - if you got the longer fork you could run a tiny bit more sagto help the head angle, but as I said before, you'd struggle to tell the difference.
My brother is running my old Marz AM3's they used to be set at 130 and I thought the bike felt too low and long for my liking and just wasn't fun. We swapped around a couple of internal spacers and bumped them up to 150mm and now it feels great loads more confident going down and the bars arnt down by his knees anymore.
I thought my old one was a dog on the climbs at 150 and no better on the downs, it was sweet at 100/130 though
Nice
