160mm 2 step air to coil, can I use a [b]170mm[/b] lyrik spring (non u-turn)?

Most older Lyriks can be extended up to 180mm, but I wouldn't want to guarantee it- there might be exceptions I don't know about

Not keen on the solo air but thanks rob.

I am asking because all I can find are "lyrik [b]DH[/b] 170mm springs" so wondering if I can just pop in one of those?

I've got a pair of 160mm u-turn coils with ruined stanchions I've been meaning to shift for spares if that's any use to you?

Did you find the right year of fork in the tech/spares guide in the link I posted? It should show how/if/what fits in and what spacers are used. Failing that it should give you a part number for what you need. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Fishers may have a pile in a box for order.

SRAM are really good with tech docs and lots of people host the old ones, just in case you need anything else this worked in google "2007 rockshox lyrik part list" Generally if you know what it should be called you will find an archive copy somewhere
