454 dual air [U -turn] unless you know a specfic spring weight will be Ok for you. i am a light weight whippet so needed air
Very adjustable as well with positive and negative air + lockout and floodgate adjustment - so they work if you forget to switch lock out off for a descent.
Cant recommend enough though I have not tried other Pikes

454 Dual air. Maybe uturn if you need it.
Good forks, but the damper leaks a bit & the air chamber can need a rebuild if they start to feel funny.

Do you want air or coil?

Air - lighter, more adjustable.
Coil - more durable, plusher.

(Others may not agree).

454 I've had both coil and air and Push'd coil all of them are pretty good, the new Revelations are slightly better .
