Looks like lyrik uppers
I give up
Yumeya somewhere?
is that a limed seatpost?
you've swapped the grips over?
have you shrink wraped the cables and hoses
5 psi added to the front tyre?
You did what you said you were going to do.
All is not as it seems. You may out FOX some people.
another c-razy sticker?
Pitch Pro owner in taking photo instead of riding shocker!!!
those aren't pikes they are fox 36s - trickster trickster
dasnut's right.
I think. Well spotted.
You've put a 200 x 50mm rear shock on to drop the rear travel down to about 5.3"
Must have missed the last thread. Why did you do this?
Your stiffy is casting a shadow onto the door ? ๐
Why paint fox forks up like pikes?! Which forks are they then?
lol @ shinsplints...
yup, the brace is more square edged like on fox forks. don't know why you'd want to rebadge it though, unless you're sponsored in which case you wouldn't ride a pitch and have lyrics/totems anyway...
Daz is right!
2009 Fox 36 TALAS RC2s
It's a sleeper 8)
A bit daft, but why not.
XT cranks
they are rockshox of some sort as they have the blackbox motion sticker on them - most likely lyrik DFR's
What was wrong with the Pikes?
(And why sticker Fox's up as Pikes? I don't geddit)
The mod appears to have disappeared. Maybe he thought he spotted Paul Weller?
terrahawk - MemberA bit daft, but why not.
why though?
I'm going to get some carbon tape and some DT Swiss stickers and re-do my Revelations.
Not.
Lizard skin on the stay. Easy!!

its easy to get stickers and blackbox don't have any lyrik options, for general sale at least. they are 36's. That brace is a give away.
Are they coils or floats? How does the change it height, if any effect the steering? I considered this set up myself when I was considering a pitch but then the crunch hit.
looks good...the way it should be IMHO.

ROFL
As far as why... I think terrahawk has it.. why not?

That is like putting an M5 sticker on a 316i
I liken this to taking the badge off an M5 and putting a 518 badge back.
titaniumlover designed me a sticker for the left leg
How utterly pointless.
Are you embarrassed to be using fox forks or something? You should have posted them as 2010 pikes, i'm sure a few would be like WTF! ๐ฏ
if only i had the time for such innocent japes!
heehee. why not eh?certainly a talking point.
wharra a load of poopy
to be fair, they look a million times better than the standard fox colours and graphics.
they should be rockphox tikes
How utterly pointless.
No, it's not. I reckon I'll be the only person on STW that undersands why he's done it, though.

It's a sleeper
It is indeed. And I like your style young man, very, very good indeed!
๐
(I spotted it straight away because I knew you'd swapped your custom painted Pikes for 36s)
Probably one of the very few totally original mods I've ever seen on STW
Superb.
10/10

Random, odd and pointless.
If you have money to burn, may i suggest a good wholesome cocaine habit?
Each to their own and that but what a waste of time.
wow thats pointless!
at least you got rid of those pretend pikes that come on them ๐
"good to see a stock bike coming with some nice high end forks like pikes"
some review i saw said.
other than being the same chassis (lowers and stantions), how, exactly are those OE travisties anything like pikes? :p (troll)
its like saying a 2CV is ACTUALLY a Lomax...
Flamejob, next time you get an idea like this just email me direct, OK?
The philistines just don't get it....
๐
^^
huh?
so the pikes that come with the pitch arent pikes? now im confuddled.
Fantastic! - Don't listen to all the moaners, I reckon you'll spark off a whole new niche trend.
they are OE aphex, (original equipment)
will have been made especially for speccy in a batch of a few thousand, and dumbed down a bit to keep the price down.
which is fine! gear like that keeps the price of bikes down, but it irritated me marginally when they won a review comparison based on having "non OE forks" when they blatently are.
compare a pair of "Pitch Pikes" with some aftermarket pikes, and they are rather different forks.
