They're just so smooth straight out of the box, minimal fuss. I have a pair of 2-Steps that performed in a similar smooth fashion...apart from the 2-step system itself, which is utter pants and didn't work after about 1 month. I was stuck with 160mm permanently which is why I'm quite used to running 160mm all the time!

Mine took a few rides to loosen up but now they are great.

I have revs and pikes on my other bikes and they have been flawless, that was one reason for going with Rockshox again.

Bushwacked, I would have though a 2nd hand pair of Lyriks would be cheaper than some fox 36's. I'm assuming the floats/vans are 36's you are referring to

After fork for a Bfe build but was thinking of some revs maybe not sure about the 36's for a trail bike 160 is big, will it not handle like a battle hovercraft on the tight stuff?

I'm lucky enough to have a Soul with Pikes on so my BFe is a play bike (although it gets used a lot lately). I think 140mm bolt through would be ideal for the BFe as a everyday bike. Revs would be great

Thanks Chucky did think about some talas 36's but the revs are 150 now so I'll go with those not enough Gnarl for 36's bt they would be good for the alps on the five...... 8)

I've got those Rev teams on my Ventana and they are a great fork. Just as good as my Pushed Pike, but 3/4 lbs lighter. 😆

you won't be dissapointed

try here

[url] http://www.merlincycles.co.uk/marzocchi-and-rockshox-suspension-forks/rockshox-suspension-forks/rockshox-revelation-team-dual-air-maxle-lite.html [/url]

they are £478 this week, plus the u-turns (which i have) are also the same price.

or even here

at £455

U turn is ideal and works well on the frame for those steep climbs
