    Are these the ones that you can make into 120 mm travel by removing a spacer?

    Rude not to! Just a shame they don't have them in black, oh well, anodised black bike should look ok with white forks at that price! Cheers mate!

    Could anyone tell me whether or not these forks would fit a Boardman Urban?

    And also, on a 2006 Giant XTC SX:

    It should fit both bikes, but measure the width of the steerer tubes of both bikes' forks first. Must be 1 1/8 inches for the rebas to fit.

    Thanks for that Greer. It looks like they are both 1 1/8 inch. If this is the case, should I be ok to buy?

    Looks or are?! :P other than that, it's a full length steerer so no problems there, what are your current hubs? QR?

    One deffo 1 1/8 inch, the other is located 250 miles away so just guessing!

    Yes, they are QR.

    Have bought one anyway (couldn't really justify the cost for two - however big a bargain) and just noticed that they are now sold out.

    Bit worrying that when you click the link now it takes you to a 'sold out' page for Reba 29ers!

    I was thinking the same ... and then couldn't understand if I'd misread it!

    Mine arrived today, very pleased with the weight of them!

    They came with two black spacers, are these to increase travel or decrease?

    To decrease - fit one under the air seal head to reduce to 100m, fit two to make 80mm.

    If anyone missed this deal, I am selling mine bought in this deal as no longer needed. Selling for price paid plus p&p to you - around £225 all-in at a guess. If you're interested PM me.

    What colour are they? Do they come with poploc or a pump? I've just bought some Recon Golds for a little bit less than what you're offering and I'm having buyers remorse as they're not quite right!

    Apologies for slow reply - been away for a wet weekend!

    The forks are white and come with poploc but no pump.

    @swelsbyuk I've sent you a direct message on here, can you get back in touch please. I'll have the forks if they've not already gone.
