    Looking to buy a 120mm fork, don't care if it is a Rockshox, Fox or another decent fork. Would prefer boost but I can use a 12 X 142mm. I am building a new hardtail and the Rockshox Reba Rl that I have the steerer tube is too short at 6.5 inches. If someone has one with 7 in. of steer looking to get rid of, I would definitely be interested. Even one that needs some rebuilding.

    I was thinking of upgrading the fork on my DV9. Having it presold would help encourage me to make the move. It’s a Fox Rhythm 34 Fit Grip damper, boost spacing. 200ish miles. I don’t really know about price since the rhythm is OEM only, but I understand it’s not high end, and I like to price on the cheap side of fair.

    I don't think you mean 12 x 142mm for a fork. That's rear wheel spacing. Either 100mm (old standard) or 110mm ("boost") for the fork.

    @herzalot , Thanks, meant 15X100. I think I might have found a stem with a low stack. The Deity Copperhead has a 30mm stack. That is probably all that I might need. @buggravy I have no problem going OEM.

    If Barby doesn't go for that one, keep me in mind... The Rhythm used to be found brand new a little north of $200 in Europe. I bought one from Germany for $211 shipped. It's still on the Chameleon. :D Then they got popular, and the price shot up to $500. Not sure if you can even import the new ones anymore...

    I also have a Rhythm 34 that I will be selling as soon as I get my new suspension, it’s a boost 29er.

    I have a Manitou Tower Pro 120, 15x100, 6 5/8" steerer tube. Was on my Epic but has been hanging around waiting for another Epic for 4 years... Super easy to tune w/ washers/shim stack...

    A 6 5/8" steerer is too short. Thanks for the offer. That is the length that I have now.

    Still looking? I've got a take off from my Salsa Woodsmoke 27.5+. It's a Rockshox Recon RL Boost 140. I'm not entirely sure if it is a 27.5 (pretty sure tho) or 29'r. I'm also don't know the difference between the Gold and Silver version to give you specific specs. But, I'm pretty sure you can remove the spacer to reduce down to 120.

    If you're interested, give me questions and I'll look into it when I get home. I'll get you the approximate A/C and steerer length. Its a tapered steerer and has a Cane Creek crown race installed (i don't have a remover).
