What 140mm fork for a 2006 P7?

Kowalski

The Fox Vanilla on my 2006 Orange P7 has started to make a strange clicking noise (I've tried stripping and servicing it but it's not made it any better) so I've decided that it's probably overdue an upgrade. The problem I have is finding a decent 140mm "all mountain" fork that fits in the 1 1/8" headtube.

I'm fairly keen to push the "all mountain" claims from the 2006 Orange brochure so I need something fairly robust, I'm not too worried about weight and would like to move to the thicker 15QR axels to keep things stiff.

Any suggestions....?

Revelation with a spacer to drop the travel to 140mm

Thanks, just had a look at the Revelation but again i'm struggling to find anyone who sells the 1 1/8" steerer version. I've found one of the 'DPA' versions but the review on here for that one isn't exactly glowing -

I'll maybe have to try eBay and get something off of back in the day...

Brilliant, thanks, great price too!

Yeah, it is.

Just to add, I've got the tapered version of that fork and I've found it brilliant so far with no issues, touch wood.
