Just saw over on Bike Rumor that Avalanche has Pike upgrades available now. Linky.
I know there's a few Avy users on the board that swear up and down that it's the best upgrade they've ever done to their forks. I view that sort of feedback with less skepticism than massive marketing campaigns or vacuous articles written about the next best thing, like in my other thread over here…
So, being that I have a Pike, I would rather spend $200 on an upgrade that may or may not make a difference, instead of $1,200 on a new fork that may or may not be as good as everyone says. Anyone care to offer their experiences with Avalanche stuff? I see their site has a "rider level" selector. Beginner, Sport, Expert, Semi/Ex Pro, or Pro. If I'm honest with myself, I'm pretty square in the Sport category. Is it even worth considering the upgrade? I'm looking at the Charger upgrade and not the entire open bath system…
Thanks all!
Ride, don't slide.
