Does anyone know if you can increase the travel on a 27.5" 130mm RL?
I know with the pikes you can just buy the internals and swap it over to make them into a longer travel model but not sure if this is the same with the revelations?

Anyone know the answer and part numbers for the bits needed

cheers

Did it just last week on a 120. Air spring shaft bought £25 (not the kit) lowers off, 15 mins later 150mm 🙂

good to know it was nice and easy.

Could have just found out in work on Monday, but sat here deciding which bike to buy and making a list of all the things to change as soon as I get it because it is far to hot and humid to sleep!

Yes suprised myself. You do need a snap ring tool, oil and grease as well. Do a search for rock shox revelation 2013 manual for a quick read, it says to remove the top of the fork shaft but I didn't.
