"This new sleek trail suspension from RockShox can only be described as
a modern fork that transcends all. With a diverse range of options and an
amazing price to performance ratio, this trailblazer can hang with its more
refined counterpart, RockShox very own Revelation.
Revelation set the bar for all front suspension that performs in the 150mm
travel arena. To continue the RockShox promise we had to work hard to uphold
performance and low weight in such an affordable fork. The “outside the box”
approach in spring and weight development really tells a story about creativity
and innovation in product development.
Sektor is about choice and being able to acquire a product that performs for
your trail riding needs. We start with the 9mm QR, 15x100 or 20x110 Maxle Lite
offerings and then provide you three spring options; Coil, Solo Air and U-Turn.
This fork offers affordable and exciting options."
Still... somebody please R&D a RELIABLE, air sprung travel adjustment for 7" forks, preferably with independently adjustable po and negative chambers. No U-Turn-air, ATA, Talas and especialy 2step are not reliable enough, brake bumps are killing those systems.
The Pike is still on the Sram site, but I don't think they are producing any more.

. . . a dual crown Domain???
u-turn.They also told me,this first time, that the fork does not work.Since www.bikexcs.ro was not authorised by Sram to fix the sektor the fork had to be sent to www.dhsbike.ro .During the three weeks I had to wait for the fork to be repaired at the Sram authorised dealer,I purchased a bike for my daughter from the same shop, I sent them new customers that purchased a new bike from them.When I asked why it took such a long time, I was told that the Sram mechanics had a race to go to.Also I was told that I had to ride aggressively because the fork lock does not work and it might start working, if the lock does not work I should bring the fork back for repairs. Will I ride my bike .....ever?
I'd find another shop...
