About to hit the button on a pair of these ๐
What is the reason for choosing the 51mm offset version?
I was all set to buy the standard offset....
Your input would be appreciated, as I'm going to order the forks on Friday - Christmas present to self! ๐
Thanks in advance,
Alan.
Not technically minded but is it not to do with the steerer angle, I thought the 51mm version would give a more nimble/lighter steering feel.The greater the offset number might recreate the steering feel you get from a 26" ride.
Could be wrong though!
This might help

Thread I started is the one at the top. Never did get a definitive answer but I'm very happy with my 51mm Pikes and they got good feedback in a ST mag 29er review a while back so I'd recommend them
I see the decision is made! Have you contacted 2souls yet? They're a micro brand and manufacture on small batch runs. Its unlikely that you'll get one off the shelf unless your timing is fortunate.
A bit more time researching tonight then.....
Scienceofficer:
You are indeed correct - I just paid for the frame this morning.
I was fortunate enough to get the [b]very last ceramic coated in XL![/b] ๐
Nice!
