It looks like Nicolai have knocked it back to a 140/140 for 2015. Shame as 2015 is going to be the year that I can finally afford one. Really wanted to run it 160/150. Guess they need to differentiate it from the ION16.

Does anyone have any idea what the warrantied fork will be in a 140 frame?
It is interesting very glad I have just got mine at the previous travel.
I think you can spec a uprated downtube enabling a 160 fork , but still no more than 140 rear.
But would agree range seems more defined now
TB short light
AC mid
Ion long
Just a thought, but you can get this (IIRC) with either 650b or 29" wheels. Would the latter make up of it having a bit less travel?
Helius AC is 27.5 only now and the TB is 29.
The important fork measurement is the axle to crown rather than the travel. 542mm with standard downtube, 552 with the optional stronger downtube. Nicolai work closely with Sram/RockShox so the 140mm will likely be a RS fork but I've not caught up with the 2015 RS fork range yet. I'd guess a Pike
Awwwwwwww
Still want one desperately
Still can't afford it
