Noice! What travel forks are those? They seem quite short ( :D ) for a modern bike.
 
Forks are Reba Race with 100mm travel, apparently the 2006 Handjob was only meant to have 100mm travel forks, but have seen people run bigger , perhaps taking sag into account lets you do this,

I think the 2009 Handjob can run bigger travel forks though,

plenty enough travel for me though :roll:
 
hmmm, seems they would have come out of the box set at 80 mm, me want the full travel of the forks now,

is this an easy job does anyone know, or trip to LBS, and will it be an expensive trip to LBS??
 
all-travel change is easy on these forks, theres a tutorial on the sram/rockshox website. it takes about 25-35mins. worth it too on the cove, i have ridden the handjob with 100mm, 120mm, 130mm and 140mm, and it rides best in either 120mm or 130mm. think the reba will only go to 100mm tho?
