Hi guys
I'm getting a cotic bfe frame for Xmas from the wife I'm just struggling to decide on what forks to buy for it, I was looking at rockshox pike 150mm solo air, but now I'm not sure I have always had fox apart from some boxers on a DH bike my current bike has fox float 34 CTD kashima so I did think about going for something like that or some talas forks!?
Your in put please people

Just built one myself with 150mm Fox 32's but given the choice of the 34 or Pike I'd have gone for the Pike, I'm a big Fox fan but they have kinda messed up with CTD, makes sense on rear shocks but not on forks. Pikes are more adjustable, lighter and significantly cheaper.0

Thanks for your input i do tend to use the fork either locked out or full open as this is how it feels best think im gonna go with the pikes, hoping i might get some more input from others!?0 -

Agreed i'd be very tempted to go for a Pike at the minute. I'm a big fan of Marzocchi for builds like as welll.0 -
