they tested them in ST recently at £400 in black but i can't find 'em anywhere

RS seem to have a lot of options so mebbe not all are imported? or its too many items to keep in stock? special order only?

The Rev race maxle lite's were almost all 150mm and in white rather than the 140mm in black the ST tested. Got mine from Rutland but, as you say, they have disappeared from every outlet around. You are faced with either shelling out £500 plus for some up-specced models or waiting until they release more of the dual air race models, possibly under a different title. Like mine a lot.

Pic is of QR but it does mention Maxle as an option but they may just have lifted the generic description from the RS site

140mm 2010s? I haven't seen them but will now have a look. We have 2009 Revelations with Maxle (U-Turn) for much cheapness but not 2010s. Margins are dismal on them but at least they have their serial numbers intact and are legit!

Flyingfox, my mate bought some from you and was delighted with the service. I think the forks arrived with him before you had even taken the payment!

at 400 quid shipped i fear your idea of much cheapness and mine may not coincide...

Also, Why does the Maxle version of everything cost so much more? Is it just fashion inflated prices?

Theres less demand for QR versions so greater reductions. You also have to factor in the cost of the axle.
