Just split my singlespeed and selling bits off, I'd assumed these forks were F100's but after a bit of googling I think they may actually be 140 fox 32 floats reduced. Anyone more knowledgable confirm please?

yes if not webbed I.E just a big cutout, they're F series with different decals.

Looks like a 2008 model to me.

Well they've got the little triangles there, so assuming they are actually the 140 versions then. That's interesting, so can they easily have the travel changed?

Oh - they also weigh in at 1750g (195 steerer) if that confirms they are the longer travel fork?

Travel easily changed, just remove spacers from spring leg.

Hmmm thanks Loco for your help.

Currently using a 454 pike on my mmmbop, wondering if it might be worth swapping to these as they appear to be a pound lighter. How do they perform compared to the pike?

They seem great at 100mm but that was when I was comparing to rebas...

I prefer the damping on Fox forks, but thats a personal thing, see if you can extend them pop them on and try them to see what you think ๐Ÿ˜€
