Can you anyone confirm that the only part required to convert a 140mm Pike 29er fork to 120mm Travel is a RockShox Pike Air Shaft Solo Air 150mm Travel 26 / 120mm Travel 29 please?

Oh and 4 tokens.

Yes the 26" 150mm/27" 140mm/29" 120mm air shaft are one and the same unit, you'll want some 0w30 lower oil as well to do the job, we obviously have all this in stock ๐Ÿ˜‰

Loco - in case you read this before I call tomorrow what air shafts do you stock? I'm after a 150mm 29er version and was about to order from a shop in the States.

Yetiman, can machine one to that size, will have to double check we have a 160mm to use but 99% sure we have.

Thanks Clink ๐Ÿ˜€

Why would you want less travel?
