Was looking at these the other day [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/rockshox-argyle-rct-solo-air-forks-20mm-2014/rp-prod109666 ]Argyle RCT 140mm[/url]
They look suspiciously like my old Pikes - 20mm axle, 1 1/8" steerer, solo air, motion control etc
Could they be used as 140mm trail forks or would the internals/damping be too harsh?
Wasn't the Argyle just a short travel version of the old pike originally? obviously those are longer travel than the original 100mm versions.
My Five has old pikes which i run at 140mm all the time, for XC AM and DH. Great forks.
Those ones are Orange as well, buy them now before I do!!
Hmmm. I tried to use some DJ1s as stiff short-travel trail forks but they were way too harsh and uncompliant.
Just wondering if the Argyles would be the same 😕
Then again who uses 140mm DJ forks?
Argyle RCTs are supposed to be good, and the lowers are pikes. im sure they can do a bit of everything. Sam Reynolds used to rate them highly and they've never slowed him down on the trails!
