I have a set of pike 351s and I'm considering fitting revelation stanctions and internals. Will this work?
Both are 140mm my pikes have coils currently and the revelations are solo air.
Any advice appreciated.
yes
Anything to elaborate on or is it literally a straight swap?
Forgot to mention the pikes are 20mm maxle and the revelations are 9mm QR hence wishing to keep the pike lowers.
You should be able to just undo the lowers and swap them over with a little fresh oil. I reckon you could have it done inside 20 mins if your a first time fork meddler.
I've only ever done basic servicing. Well happy if its that easy 🙂
Will this work if it's a current-model (2010-onwards) rev? 140mm 426s were basically lightweight Pikes but I thought they were all dualair.
most* RS stuff with the same diameter stanchions is interchangeable. It's mostly the same stuff in there so long as the right bits come out the foot nuts then you should be fine. If you check the RS/SRAM site then there are lists of spares that are for REV/PIKE etc.
*check elsewhere first
09 and before 140mm stuff should be pretty interchangeable, 2010 onwards 150mm rev stuff is longer so not so compatible in most cases.
Main issue with lower swaps is how well the bushes match the replacement stantions, they sometimes benefit from a bit of adjustment to get a decent wobble free and smooth running fit.
