The Revelation coil fork on my Superlight is starting to wear through the LH stanchion. Revelation solo air RCT's have been suggested as a replacement but is there anything else I should consider. I realise 26" straight steerer forks are a rarity but there may be alternatives to the RCT. QR is fine too as I am pretty light and always been happy with QR. Saves complications on the Thule 561 carrier I use as well. Around 120 travel would probably be about right.

Have got some Argyle RCTs on my Commencal. Don't be put off by the DJ marketing the range of adjustment is huge

Coincidentally they replaced some solo air Revelations

£330 from Winstanleys http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/64998/RockShox_Argyle_RCT_Solo_Air_Maxle_Lite_2015_Forks
or 400 euros if you prefer black https://www.bike24.com/p243993.html

Get them serviced/replace stanchions?

I thought about having the stanchions replaced by one of the companies that offer this service but something about pressing out a shrunk-fit component and replacing it makes me a bit nervous.
A new set of uppers is probably about as much as a new set of forks.
