Just trying to hunt around for a replacement coil for some old pike u-turns. Do any other springs work or will it only be specific Pike ones? Can you get a different 140mm spring that is missing the u-turn or something?
Blue/Firm 140mm is what I'm hunting for!

I believe I have a 140mm firm Pike U Turn spring somewhere in the garage. I thought the medium was a bit soft so got the firm.
The firm was too firm so the medium went back in.

I'll check on it's condition tomorrow (if I can find it).

Blue / firm Pike U-Turn Coil 140mm spring.
How does £10 plus postage sound?

Curses, those Sektor U-turn springs do not fit in the Pike fork. There is some kind of flange restricting the internal diameter at the bottom of the upper tubes, this stops the spring going down to be connected to the foot nut.

So if anyone has a soft (Yellow) U-turn spring assembly for a Rockshox Pike, please get in touch.

Did you take the end cap out of the bottom of the air side tube? Fairly sure the design of a U-turn spring is the same Pike-Sektor-Revs - all pretty much the same chassis.

All of the Air U-turn gubbins had to come out of my Revs for the Sektor spring to fit. A non U-turn coil would be different as the shaft and spring guide are separate and need the support of the end cap.
