Revs rlt or rebs rlt
Neither, ones a medium travel fork & the other a short, both very good In there own area
Oh intresting angle there
What frame are they to go on?
They are essentially the same forks with Rebound, Lockout, Threshold (same type of internals in different chassis ) as zippy suggests the Rev is a 130-150 fork and the Reba is a 100-120 fork.
Santa cruz heckler i used to run recon with 135mm travel
A Heckler's designed for 140mm+. Get the Rev.
Ok rl or go rlt
Personally, RLT (there was a thread yesterday about why).
I have some 2012 Rev RLT's and they are very nice. If you are looking at Merlin I think it is only a few pounds more for the RLT and I would happily pay it again.
I've got an RCT3 Rev and quite like the 'threshold' setting. If you didn't know it's like Propedal so is firmer but with a bit of give, I use this with the lower position for climbing and plainer flat sections.
I think dual position is a good choice on a long forked trail bike, it's better than U-turn as you just flick the knob and bounce on the fork rather than wind the thing in/out. All the fun of 150mm with the occasional practicality of 120mm when you want it.
Am I shooting myself in the foot buy buying a Mavic cross ride 15mm to go with revs
I think you will find that the Heckler is built to take 140 - 160.

You are if the Revs are 20mm axle
No there 15mm
No. They will be fine. Good wheels for the price. Make sure you order the 15mm versions as the qr/15mm wheels are not interchangeable
Yeah already got a cross rides from 2008 still running smooth and true
...maybe a little bit more information to begin with next time...? 😕
Ok sorry
