[Closed] PSA - Pike RC 150mm - Euro 380 New

Very tempting, that. Do the RC have the Charger damper? Any other differences between RC and RCT3?

They have the charge damper, just no pedal setting...so open and lock. I never use my pedal setting tbh. The 380 is in euros by the way not £...so quite a bit less! Just remember to add 10 euros for postage too.

Works out around £310 posted, a crazy price !

100% they have the charge damper as I have just received a pair, only difference is the pedal setting which is no way worth £200 over the RCT3 from the cheapest online price.

also confirmed here: http://jungleracing.com/tag/setup/

RCT3 are also on alltricks.fr if you look properly for 469.99 150mm or 499.99 160mm 26"

Thank you!
Ordered!
£310. What's not to like?

Nah, want the full RCT3 so ordered some 650b 150mm from CRC today for 506 less a £12 code kicking around which is pretty good for a UK supplier.

Straight steerer Revs are tempting @ £250. Must resist....

Call them first as the website is not correct. Waiting for a refund now. Great!

In that link the pic of the compression adjuster doesn't have the separate low-speed compression adjuster that the RC3 has - though the text does talk about low speed compression adjustment. Is it a case of the main dial doing low speed compression and you just turn it all the way to get lock?

Apologies SOAP - my fault. To be fair the ad for my duals was all buggered up too. Stated RCT3 dual...but the actual techy stuff referred to solo air. They did arrive as RCT3 but OEM and I got €40 back to compensate for lack of star nut, pump and seal kit.

CRC are selling the 150 RCT3 for 497

Cheers guys ordered

Cheers OP, I'll have a set winging their way over the channel shortly...

Anyone know where I can get Pikes in 29er flavour, 120mm with 51mm offset?

would i be mad not to buy these pikes?

I took the bait, thanks for the code Neil. Glad I resisted the Merlin deal a few weeks back now!

Guys, quick question. Did anyone get email confirmation from all tricks? I have had my pay pal receipt but not a confirmation of order!?

Yep...but it did take a wee while to come through

Yep, had a dispatch email too......although it's in French

Yep but had dropped into spam folder whereas the order itself didnt .

Hmmmmmmmmmmm super tmepted! Nearly went for the Merlin deal last posted, but have some noob questions.

How do they compare to my Pike Coil 426 which have amazing small bump compliance? and sexy handlebar poplock for climbing (which I have set to pretty much rigid fork). ( http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/components/forks-suspension/product/review-rockshox-pike-426-coil-u-turn-31377/ )

Or is the RC3T the way to go to match my current specs?

Need 27.5 flava

Whats wrong on the ad Matther?

hmmmmmmm hope nothing was wrong with the ad, as i'm now £307 lighter! LOL

Cancelled the paypal order as they whacked a cheeky £13 exchange rate commission on the euro conversion.

I've currently got standard steerer pikes in my tapered headtube so i'll need a new crown race, and a HOPE 20mm > 15mm conversion kit, is that it?

Cruz - don't think you have any worries. I bought the black dual version which was the title of the ad...but the description in the tech stuff was for the solo air. I called them and they told me they were duals. Arrived OEM rather than proper boxed jobs so were missing pump, star nut and seal kit, but they refunded me €40. Set of duals rct3 for £430 in the end and all black version. The white ones are at least £600 everywhere else...and also look awful IMO.

cheers matther 🙂

So these RC Pike solo air are too likely OEM? Not that i'm complaining for the price LOL

How long is a little while? I ordered mine Thursday night and not heard a dicky bird since. I have emailed them and also had no reply!

Not as long as that

That's what I paid for my New 2014 160mm RCT3 solo Air 27.5 🙂

I got the mail straight away :- )

Got a confirmation immediately and a dispatch mail just over 24 hrs later.

Few panic over, my junk folder was playing tricks on me. Dispatched and on it's way....now just need a frame to for them too!

At this rate STW will be clearing out alltricks 😆

So these RC Pike solo air are too likely OEM

yes they are OEM, mine came with just the spacers and a manual telling you how to do up a maxle in 23 languages.

My forks came direct from Transition
As the importer

Oh right

Only tend to use CRC...

Mine arrived today. OEM so no pump or spare seals. It does have the bottomless tokens though. Don't forget to buy a star fangled nut!!!

£323 all in for 29er Rcs thankyouverymuch OP 😀

UPS man rolled up with mine this morning too. I have the bottomless tokens like andymc06 but no pump, spare seals or Haribo.

Forks were packed in a slightly cavalier fashion with no bubble wrap in sight, looks like the steerer made a bid for freedom through the top of the box at some point during the journey! Seem to have survived unscathed though 🙂

Looking forward to seeing if they hold up to the hype. Feeling good in the highly scientific 'quick push on the carpet' test...
