[Closed] Pikes and tokens

Luftkappe.

I buggered about for ages with tokens and pressures, never ever got the solos to work like the dual position I used to have, now they're wicked, lovely small bump compliance, not divey.

I know it's not the same fork but I have a set of 150mm Yari forks that came with 2 tokens in them and 2 spare but I find them best with no tokens in them .

Well that is my experience they felt great without tokens, still ramping up, this may be my default.
I,m thinking harsher/stiffer may well work if you prefer smoother trails with big drops/jumps.

Ps. The tokens were recommended at last service.

I am going to try less rebound.

Where is your rebound now?

Just slowed mine down to halfway on the dial and it's much more comfy, with better grip.

Halfway, will try a couple of clicks less.

I got mine with no tokens, found I was adjusting pressure constantly. Up to not dive, down for small bump sensitivity. 2 tokens now and they're pretty good.

Think I still prefer my coil Lyrik RC2 with the floodgate removed though.

This is the thing I have always found the new pike very good not divey at all, certainly better than the older solo air LYric.

I have just been out on some regular trails, it felt better with one, but i' m still not happy, will keep tweaking!

There's always a coil conversion 😉

I have found that with two tokens ... blah...blah...

What travel??

There's a hell of a difference between adding tokens to a 120mm fork and 160mm fork.

FWIW: I tried 1 and I tried 3, but I find 2 tokens on a 140mm Pike works for me. (Luftkappe curious, but skint.)

I've just out in a half token, now on 2.5

These tokens, could they be 3D printed?

These tokens, could they be 3D printed?

You could lob a big gob of chewing gum in there and it would achieve the same result, so I would say "yes".

Yes they can be 3D printed, hence the half I have put in. From a pal that 3D prints them.
