Hi Kiwi,
I have an SB66 and am thinking about swapping the forks to Pikes.
I currently run 170mm X Fusion Vengeance HLR. They are great forks but too big and too heavy for my needs. The bike is VERY slack.
I am not sure whether to go for the 150mm or 160mm Pikes. I read that the SB66 was originally designed for 150s. I mainly ride at Swinley Forest – which is as much up and along as it is down so Im looking for versatility but I dont want to loose that epic confidence you get when you point the bike downwards and into the rough stuff. Would I loose this with 150s? How do you find the 160s and why did you choose them over the 150s?
Thanks
(bike looks great btw)
