Can I convert my Yari's from 140 to 160 just by swapping out the the air side tube thing? Not sure if the stanchions are long enough. Anyone done it or know. Thanks
Yes, Just change out the airshaft
I've not got a yari (but would like one - or a pike)but have RS Revelations. If the yari is anything like it, most of them will have the same length stanchions but will just have different length airshafts. I recently changed from 130mm travel to 150mm travel. Think the part was £27. I got Bad Ass Bikes near Bristol to change the part for me (as I don't have circlip pliers / spare fork oil etc).
The stanchions are marked all the way round with various travel and sag setting lines depending on what airshaft is fitted.
I know it's not meant to be difficult to do but I just cba to do it. Thought their all in price for £60 was great. Forks are much plusher since it was done as they did a lower leg service effectively at the same time.
