red looks like crap. plus, who gives a crap, no one cares how your bike looks as long as you ride it (just take a look at my bike) so get which ever one is cheaper.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:37)

same price lol. I just wanted opinions. Also red comes only in 140mm, and im not lowering expert. white comes 100mm, Ill stick with that.

itsallgoodproductions (Oct 24, 2010 at 15:27)

Go with red it doesn't matter what colour something is as long as it rides good.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 15:48)

You know that both are the exact same fork right? just different colours?

tyler-durden (Oct 24, 2010 at 14:06)

The red would be off. It would add something, but your bike has too much white to just add red.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 14:07)

Ya, I also dont want to go through the trouble of lowering it.

mikedekoning (Oct 24, 2010 at 17:48)

You can't get the RCT in White either.

jakedavisphoto (Oct 26, 2010 at 3:48)

Yes you can.

Tate27 (Oct 26, 2010 at 4:52)

Mike, Its funny you say that. I called Norco catalog, they dont ahve it, but lambert cycles will have by christmas, Thats when im getting it.

mikedekoning (Oct 26, 2010 at 9:07)

White and Black RCT's are for team riders only...There is a CHANCE they might release them, straight from Tyler Morland(Sram).

Tate27 (Oct 26, 2010 at 9:24)

Thats where your wrong,Except for the black RCT's Those are for only team riders and before market bikes, On the SRAM site the white and red are availible in the aftermarket. Even on CRC you can buy the white ones. Lambert will have them by December.

mikedekoning (Oct 26, 2010 at 10:07)

I didn't even try to get a white one. I have a black one, and I was told White and Black we're team colours only! My bad on the White? Hope you get ahold of one man. Cheers.

Tate27 (Oct 26, 2010 at 12:00)

Well Id say be glad you got the black one! Thanks man! How do they ride?

itsallgoodproductions (Oct 24, 2010 at 19:40)

lol tru. yeah then stick with white

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 19:59)

I find it funny that you couldnt tell the difference. Especialy because i did this all on Microsoft Word... Lawl

drinkmilk54 Plus (Oct 24, 2010 at 20:17)

Ahaha nice shop. Oh and ew on the fork color

Tate27 (Oct 25, 2010 at 4:45)

Red? I know.

itsallgoodproductions (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:31)

Ohh i thought it was still your old 318

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:38)

nah. That thing is bent to shit.

mvonhollen (Oct 24, 2010 at 16:45)

Id go red if you had a black frame, but white will look way better with the green and white.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 16:56)

Yeah thats what I was thinking. Get those Dakine gloves yet?!?

mvonhollen (Oct 24, 2010 at 17:29)

No i forgot to re-ask haha

garryman (Oct 25, 2010 at 5:17)

First version! +1

ronobiker3 (Oct 25, 2010 at 16:20)

red=blah

AggressiveCouch (Feb 12, 2011 at 13:59)

i like the white

Tate27 (Feb 12, 2011 at 14:56)

Same, Turns out I cant get in in white anyways, I got a Much sicker fork though. Soon to be seen!

Nashmeyer (Jan 4, 2011 at 15:37)

do u have the fork yet?

Tate27 (Jan 4, 2011 at 17:35)

No, Its retarded, the White fork is never going to be availible in Canada. The problem is is that, you have to special order them as a shop. The only way the shop can special order them is if they order 6 forks in white. So I Just sent in my broken argyle and I'm going to get Sektor Uppers and whole new internals, which will practicly make it and RCT.

Nashmeyer (Jan 4, 2011 at 19:10)

Honestly I like the red on the green it makes it different it will catch the eye who cares if it doesn't match green and white is overated just paint rims red and ur good to go I think reds amazing looking

Tate27 (Jan 4, 2011 at 19:30)

I Agree, the red stands out, but I already painted my rear rim White, And I preffer the white anyways. Painting parts is a bitch, and Me sedning in my fork and getting new parts in it is wayyy cheaper than a whole new fork.

Nashmeyer (Jan 4, 2011 at 19:32)

Yeah but I think the rct is worth it it'd be lighter more or less travel and even with out the rims keep the red I think it'd be sick

Tate27 (Jan 4, 2011 at 19:42)

No Actualy, thats where your wrong. The lowers are the exact same on the normal Argyle and the RCT, So, This way, I can actualy build I much lighter fork than the RCT, Run maybe REBA Uppers, or Reba Internals, Even Sektor Uppers, And it will most likely be lighter than the RCT. And I can still have more or less travel. Depending on how I position my travel spacers. Yet Still a fraction of the cost.

puckunk (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:00)

dont do it.... omg that would look so stupid Razz

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:38)

Dun worry. Im sticking with the white.

m-boltz (Oct 24, 2010 at 14:39)

red looks like shit lol stick with the white

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 15:23)

Jeff suggested it would be a good idea because of green and red being complementary colours.

I dont see what hes talking about...

atomichachet (Oct 24, 2010 at 17:04)

yeah i have to agree with u now tate. red looks pretty miserable

j-teeple (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:45)

I said the red would make it look like a christmas tree(which would look bad). I also said stick with the white fork.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 18:46)

Other Jeff The one above you. Lol

core-macneil-rider (Oct 24, 2010 at 20:20)

dude get a fox and be done with it

Tate27 (Oct 25, 2010 at 4:45)

No. Because im warrantying my fork threw Lambert and they dont deal with fox.
Also No point. Fox'es are so expensive. The argyle isnt that bad, and this one is light than a 36 float as it is.

j-teeple (Nov 25, 2010 at 15:50)

An Argyle isn't lighter than a 36 Float. Just thought I'd put that out there.

Tate27 (Nov 25, 2010 at 16:06)

Incorrect, The new Argyle RCT is 4.4lbs with steertube, the 36 float RLC (lightest float) is 4.5 with 1 1/8 steerer. Just a tad bit heavier for fox, and a ton more expensive... Well with my crash replacement warranty that is.

j-teeple (Oct 24, 2010 at 14:06)

Red would make your bike look like a christmas tree. Stick with the white.

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 14:06)

Good reasoning. Im Jewish So it only makes sense to stay away from christmas.

ballsmcbeaver123 (Oct 24, 2010 at 15:03)

im not feelin the red

Tate27 (Oct 24, 2010 at 15:23)

Same.
