What characteristics of the Reba do you want to change?
I’m assuming the Reba is 32mm stanchions? if so, at 150mm that’d be a fair reason to swap out to 34/35/36mm.
What budget? as you’ve mentioned the Ö word I assume the sky’s the limit – might be worth scanning some reviews of forks you fancy.

I am familiar with Ohlins from my motorbike back ground, and tbf, they’re the bo**ox on them, but this is a MTB, so a different beast.

I hear what you’re saying, theres deals on the Ohlins (& others), but I also take into account the reliability,& service & back up.

Yes they’re 32mm,so a stiffer thicker station would help feel, less flex etc, I also like the remote lock outs, which mine don’t have.

Whose doing the biz on Rockshox, as the Pike debonair is a great fork,no question.

Thx guys, ill just av to keep my bike clips on my pyjamas..lol

ive recently lost my Mum last month to Dimentia after 5 years,god knows what carers are going through,or familys.
All I know is,it was a blessing for us in the end,so anyone going through it ,or working in it,my heart goes out to you..never mind the Corona virus.

Wheres the Sliding allen keys from ?,i have a few facom,but not a full set.But those KS ones look trick.

Got some 150 Pikes RTC3 (I think) that were taken of a S Works Stumpjumper that have had one weeks use. Would need to check steerer length if you are interested, also got the Carbon Rovals that came with it.

I may be interested in the|Pikes Tracey , if Weeksy isn’t bothered, my emails in my profile, feel free to drop me a line !

Rolex Submariner ! 😉👍🤭

Crush 27.5 + ere

i’ve just had the same issues, choosing the correct pick n mix is a minefield.

Mine is due to arrive today, so will know later..
I emailed, then rang Orange, and they even got it wrong !.

Good luck.

Are they tubless ready ?.

I fly to Gerona 4/5 times a year,& always book firefly through the doyouspain website,easy drop off,its a doddle & cheap..

Thx guys

Surely by bypassing the rear mech using the 2 big ones it will then be too short,or am I missing something,its not a fixie ?.

it’s a Hard tail

E4’s & Hope brake products with the right pad & set up are about feel,not out right stopping power.. other products are like a switch,+ Hope are the best in the business if anything goes wrong…so I use them on every thing,but it’s your choice, as we’re all different..

selfy stick

I love Orange ,& love Crushes,& lime you fancied a 29r,we now have 2 in our household,soon to be 3 ,I’m currently building a boost framed one on 2.6’s,using every single item Hope make..I’m also 5’9″,mine are a medium (17),50mm stems,760/800 bars,job done..oh,& its gotta be Orange.

Thanks again for all your comments and input, I have gone the Planet X jobsworth route, as its great value.

Thanks again.

That’s great news,as I run an 8000 too,thx teethgrinder,I take it no snagging ?,& smooth changes etc ?.

They’re 2015’s,I thought it was a straight forward token job, similar to Fox,I wanna let my 11yr old ride it, so need to lower it a bit, but want to have the option of going back up,so didn’t really wanna butcher them….so if that’s what it takes he’ll have to learn to ride !,lol,thx again.

Kyle is another that looks better now too ,shes faf!

Depending on whereabouts in Mansfield you are, theres various routes to take to the pines,and yes,you can pick up the National cycle route along with the woods, it is afterall Robin Hood country, so watch for the arrows & the Sherrif!,lol, it’ll make a nice ride.. 😉

i put my lad on rapid fire age 5/6 he’s fully conversant now at 10…

I personally think and hope experience will. prevail, Marc however is not only very quick, he can be dangerous he isn’t bothered about challenging anyone anywhere ,Pedrosa has found form and Jorge is Jorge !,both Mardy and fast !..

Had bikes for nearly 30 years & have sold up recently, riding kit also.
I’m not burdened with a wife & kids, so no pressure there. I just prefer to spend my free time on the mtb these days rather than blatting around the countryside.
I dont miss it and have no plans to get another.

Similar !,in 2007/8 I did 30 odd trackdays here and abroad,& now I havnt even got so much as a pair of gloves…
Was involved In BSB,Rd racing etc….but not bothered,funnily enough 2 separate people have approached me in the last 2 weeks to do something again for nxt year,& ive said no to both..

I said try Mtb’ing,its the future.. 😉

Where are you staying?
How much climbing and rocky descending is the small rider used to?

Im not,i will drive I only live 45 mins from Stannage but don’t know it at all,but ive done Hayfield a couple of times,and I think he’ll be ok there to be fair !..just fancied Stannage for some reason.. lol

I hear what ya saying guys,dya think the Hayfield Loop may be better then ?..

I know someone who was in the same position ,he left for £30k a year more ,his employer said I’ll give you £30k to stay & wrote him a chq there & then !,guess what,took the chq & still left !…went to the new job as an MD ,was made redundant 6 months later when the receiver was brought in !,he set up on his own then sold for 10 mill 2 years later ,he’s worth 80 mill now ,true story !.

try Orange Web page on specs !
