Changing Poploc over to new forks.... can I do it?

drewcole81

Hello all,

I have just bought my new Cube Acid, love being back on a bike again and think it rides really well.... although I do miss my Kona after selling it last year...

First thing I want to change are the forks as the Dart3 are very heavy and not really to my liking anyway.

They have the SLX Poploc fitted which I find very useful so wanted to know if I change to a set of Rebas or Recons can I fit the Poploc to them to use?

Thanks, Drew.

what is an SLX poplock?

SLX is a Shimano group set Poplock is a Sram lever.

a Poplock is compatible with any Poplock compatible fork.

The Poploc has SLX written on the handle bar unit much like the SLX gear shifters do...

..... ignore me....... I'm wrong! dam it!

Sorry

So let me rephrase.... I have a SRAM poploc which I'm going to change over to some new forks as they are compatible to make my bike better...

You can also convert some RS forks to make them poplock compatible. Prob best of speaking to TF tuned about this.

Depending on the forks you buy, it may come with a poplock anyway.
