    RockShox to Re-introduce Pike Forks for 2014

    Jason MitchellBy Jason MitchellApril 4, 2013No Comments2 Mins Read

    RockShox has been busy. With the transition from Dual Air to Solo Air, filling out the 27.5 line, the all-new Vivid and Vivid Air shocks, the affordable 30 Gold line of forks and now the re-introduction of the Pike line for bikes of all wheel sizes (26, 27.5 and 29). The competition with Fox Racing for suspension dominance continues as strong as ever with each one out-duking the other at every turn.

    2014 RockShox Pike Fork

    The first version of the Pike was a solid platform, but ended up getting lost in the Reba/Revelation shuffle. The all-new Pike has a ton of features going for it that help solidify its placement in the lineup. Looks like your long-travel trailbike may now have a new BFF.

    • Lyrik stiffness at near Revelation weight
    • 35mm chassis for added stiffness
    • Charger damper rides higher in the stroke for a more supple ride
    • Asymmetrical Lower leg
    • Dedicated 15×100 mm Maxle Lite
    • Low friction single seal
    • Slotted upper bushings
    • Solo air and dual position air
    • All wheel sizes available
    • 15 x 100 axle only
    • Taper only
    • 200mm max rotor size
    • RCT3 Weight: 26” – 1835g (4.05 lb), 27.5” – 1861g (4.10 lb), 29” – 1876g (4.14 lb)
    • Travel: 26”/27.5” – 150mm, 160mm; 29” – 140mm, 150mm
    • RCT3 Adjustments: External rebound, low speed compression, 3-position compression (Open/Pedal/Lock)
