[Closed] Reducing travel on Lyrik SA

[#3161854]

Building up a Cotic BFe very soon. I have a set of Lyrik Solo-Airs going spare that I'm planning to fit. Obviously a BFe can take a 160mm fork, but I'd rather have a little less travel on it.

I've got a RockShox spacer kit to reduce the travel down to 140 or 150mm, but read some suggestions elsewhere that RockShox don't recommend doing this on the air Lyriks as it affects the spring-rate too much or something.

Anyone got any experiences?

I've shortened the travel down to 150 from 170 on my Lyric solo air.
Works fine.

[list]My 170s are fine at 150 also.
