    Great idea, it'll be far easier to carry them both to the tip

    I'd fit a 110mm lefty if funds allowed. There's a pic of a soda with a lefty in this thread.

    I'd love to put one on my Van Nic, is it possible?

    The (old) lefty's I've seen for sale lately don't go for much money, add in an adapter (hmm more expensive than I last looked):

    And you can have a lefty for not a whole lot of money, oh and a couple more quid for a wheel… but it's still not end of the world expensive

    I'm a big fan of Leftys, having wanted one since about 2002. But that Soda/ Lefty combo really doesn't look that good…

    Definitely doable though, and I'd be interested to see the results!

    Why would a fork work differently on one frame to the next?

    it wouldnt but some frames are not design to take the stress's of a dual crown fork

    for a while you could get the USE sub through Cotic so I'd have thought it'd be OK.

    Email them, they're usually quick to reply.

    Is the new 140mm lefty height adjustable? If it is I'd definately consider it, they're light and seem good and above all they look weird. But it'd be a shame to have a Soul stuck permanently at 140mm IMO.

    Not adjustable (other than internal spacers) but the Lefty axle-crown comes up a bit shorter than other equivalents…510mm in the case of the Max.
