New 2011 Argyle courtesy of bikeradar.com
photo
*Aluminum uppers
*Maxle lite
*Available Integrated Star nut for barspins with front brake
*4.44 lbs

So, as light as a pike with a full waranty. Thoughts?

bigquotesThe company's naming structure will change across the board, with more descriptive model designations such as 'RCT' (rebound, compression and threshold) to denote included features.

OH SHIT! More Rock Shox nomenclature insanity... have you guys seen how many different versions of each fork they have? Take a look at their site, friggen madness. Hope they just stick with 3 tiers for the Argyles.

Yes and no. Pike=Argyle Argyle=Pike.

Only difference was stanchions and Pike adjustments.

Yeah.... and a Pargyle is pike internals in argyle lowers. Si yeah, sorta half and half.

But the lowers are the same on both, so it's just a pike with different colours.

Can they really lose half a kg without compromising strength?
