Im looking to get some Revelations for my hardtail but not sure if they will be strong enough. I mainly ride 4x and trails (dirt jumping) will they be strong enough to cope with this?

I was looking at Pikes to start with but i really like the look of these and they are lighter, any info would be great?

    revs are AM/singletrack forks, Pikes are AM forks.

    if you dont case then they could be fine.

    But they are not Dirt jump forks.

    They will probably be fine, they are in no way weak compared to the pikes. Just not as strong, maybe. But only slightly.

    And for that price? How can you say no..

    I know they are a bargain and look better than the pikes! I do ride pretty big trails so some cases are always on the cards :lol: what are they like in comparison to travel, rebound etc etc?
