[Closed] Where have all the fork deals gone?

Sold to people who had the cash a month ago?

Where have you looked so far? There must still be something out there.

Merlin have Dual Air RLT Ti for £450. 30% off, but expensive still

I got Rev RL from there a month back for £300 with a view to getting them Pushed if they didn't perform well enough. So far haven't felt any need to upgrade them though.

So where have all the deals gone?

Germany

pm'ed you.

I got mine from On-One quite a while ago but I'm sure they were still doing deals last time I looked - try there

These maybe of interest to you

Spoke to Merlin. They are getting some more in within the next few weeks, or looks like there are some newish S/H ones around.

Don't I remember some issue with 2010 model Revs - knocking or something else?

There may have been on sum but mine definitely don't.

2009 Revs seemed to have a knocking issue (mine and a couple of other people I know, plus others online) - but that was a different chassis entirely.

My 2010 Revs have been largely fine apart from slowly leaking air from time to time. A friend had more serious air leakage issues and so did somebody he knows.

And now the U-turn has seized up on mine - but that's always been an issue and they're dropped the U-turn now anyway.

HTH in some way.

2010 rev's can be a little flakey by the sounds of thing, complete U-turn failure and air leaks if mine (and lots of other thread lately) are anything to go by, outstanding fork otherwise though. Issues should be fixed/covered by warrenty but not to 2nd owners?

Thanks all. Difficult choice - save a load of wedge on 2010 model, especially if I go almost new, or extra dosh and 2011 model.

Connected question. On my Pikes I just set rebound to a click or so slower than middle, and poplock/compression to off and never touch them again. Is it worth paying extra for the Black box damping?

The main benefit of BB is the shimmed rebound damper, which I think most 2011 Revelation forks have anyway.

Edit:

RL and RLT models upgraded to Dual Flow rebound.

Rock Shox Revelation RLT Ti - Dual Position Air 2011

400 quid in the crc vip sale but only 3 left in stock apparently

Thanks guys. Looks like I don't need the Black Box motion control then, unless anyone else has a view on why I would need it?

£400 for 2011 Ti is very tempting - thanks for pointing out. CRC always worries me though - will they run out of stock, take my money, then make me hang on forever for new stock at a higher price?

If I wanted one I'd regret missing that price.

I got some cheap from Singapore, but funny, they don't have any left now!
It looks like they're limiting the supply again so they can stick the prices up again! 😕
