help need some advice
need some forks to replace my manitou nixon 145 tcp's
1.1/8 steerer 20mm through axle .mainly for xc and trail riding .
reasonably priced.
any ideas.
thanks in advance.
I had some IT Nixon's on my Hummer, which I changed for some used TALAS forks that worked pretty well. Although found I used the travel adjust less and less and wasn't convinced by their small bump response, so have just converted these to 130 Float spec. So far, loving them 🙂
Alternatively, RS Rev's are plentiful in the classified's and the 140's I have on my FS are suiting me and the bike beautifully.
thanks .slackalice 🙂
will see what's about in my pricerange.
Second hand pikes?
i'm new to modern mtb's what make are the pikes ?
done a search think the pike's are out of my price range 😳
Even second hand? You can get some for £100
would be interested around that mark£ .
There are the old Rock Shox Pikes and the newly reintroduced ones this year. The old ones stopped being made around 2009 or so. Best bet would've a set of Rock Shox Revelations. Many are tapered steerer and 15mm axle now, but you might find some a couple of years old that suit your needs. Seem to go for decent prices too. You should find a good set for £200 to £250.
Shameless sales pitch for my cheap Pikes in the classifieds... £150 posted. 1 1/8th steerer 20mm maxle 140mm travel air spring motion control damping & rebound in good nick 🙂
thanks for the offer . but it's more than i wanted to pay
