Hi all,

I normally run 140mm Pike on my Hustler but thinking of getting some different forks which are 150mm. The Silverfish website states that the frame can take it. Just wondered if anyone is running that and what their thoughts are?

Thanks,

Nim

I tried mine with Fox 36s and while it felt brilliant going down it was awfull on climbs.
I went for Pikes too and it feels great!

I run pikes too. Feels great with them but I use the U-Turn all the time for steep climbs. I think 150mm would be fine but I´d definitely want travel adjust on it.

Pikes here too. Would like to try 150 or even 160mm forks for Alps duties, but for the UK, 140mm is spot on.
