[Closed] Pike 29er v Lyrik 29er

Lyrik is stiffer, more suppportive, more composed and deals with trail chatter better. Lots of little advantages that add up to make it a much better fork.

Buy boost if your rear end is boost, then you'll have much better choice of wheelsets in future.

We are running both and to be honest I cant tell the difference but I'm a light rider as is Abigale.
Also running some Ohlins which are by far plusher than the other two.

I'm going to have a boost Pike 140 RCT3 29er for sale in the next few weeks off my 4 month old HighTower - probably ridden 12-15 times so in as-new condition.

Great forks but I'm a Fox man and so have some 160mm 36s incoming,

hugh - if this is the case, then please drop me a mail

I'm close to getting a set of Yari but this could be better for me

cheers

Hi
Might be interested as I have a160 air shaft
Not in a rush so a few weeks would be fine.

I'l drop you both a mail (I think it only fair to give the OP first dibs) as soon as I have a date for the 36s.

I've read that according to SRAM a Lyrik is the same stiffness as a 20mm shorter Pike, so 170mm Lyrik/Yari = 150mm Pike, if the wheel sizes are the same.

Adding a Luftkappe to a Pike will make it more plush than a stock Lyrik (by enlarging the negative spring).

Cheers Hugh

Appreciate you replying - if fatgit doesn't want it I'll probably take it (unless I've sorted something else)

Many thanks
