MTB Fork Upgrade for a Roadie

Not sure what model year your Specialized Pitch is however I am going to assume it is a 2019. I looked up the Geometry numbers and it is currently spec’d with a 42 offset fork. If you go to the Reba you will be increasing your for offset to 42. The Fox offset is available in either 44 or 51. The Suntour is an offset of 42. If you increase the offset from 42 to 51 you will notice the steering quicken. You may like this, you may not. Given your description of your riding I don’t think going to a 51 offset will matter but it will change the bike handling.

I thought I would throw out this information to be aware of when you are purchasing.

edit: @kelseyh pointed out I was wrong about the 51 offset on the Reba so I changed the post
