don't have the Recon, but from my experience with Rockshox Pike, ganda na performance ng Rockshox ngayon at a much affordable price vs Fox. U-turn is definitely very helpful for those extended technical climbs. Lock out feature with floodgate valve is also very nice, since you can set at what treshold the lockout will become active so lock it and hammer away when you're going up, and it still soaks up the clutter. (i actually accidently went down AFP with the fork locked-out and didn't really notice it).

travel - Pike is 95-140 while Reba is 80-110 mm I think
purpose - more on aggresive/all mountain ang Pike, XC ang Reba
Coil ang Pike (but I think '06 model will have air also)
Pike also uses 20mm quick release axle, while Reba is standard QR

di naman 1.5 specific lahat ng long travel SC eh... IMHO, sir the point of having a 1.5" head tube is not for variety of headtube size, its for having a stronger SC long travel (8" or more) forks, meaning a 1.5" SC 8" fork is equal to a 1.125" DC 8" fork. Gets mo? that is why a marz 66 isnt as long as a 888 DC. Kaya nila ginawa yun, maybe with that technology if you need 12" travel in the future that is the time you need a DC with 1.5" |

Its not Always the Bigger the Better  In fact specially for a SC long trav fork it steerer needs nice flex pattern so that the the incidence of fatigue cracks will be reduced Prolonging the Life of your beloved Pork Very stiff Steerer could translate into great stresses on the Stanchion and Crowns |

No Axle? Strange coz that's a special type of Axle that will fit only the Pike (quick release axle!). You'll have to order that part directly from the distributor as I don't think any of the shops would carry that readily [glow=yellow,2,300]Quiapo??? Teka...

if it's missing a Maxle then it better be cheap 'coz u will have to find this part.... unless u can email RS and see how much it will cost for them to mail u one.
