You used to be able to get them on Chain Reaction Cycles. I am not sure if they still have them though
They do not 
Nor does BTI... I'm really hating myself for not ordering one a few months ago when I had thought about it!!

I found a Firm Duke spring(blue). I also have heard that the Duke springs are softer than their respective colored Pike springs. For my particular application, the medium Pike spring works pretty good and the blue Duke is the firm spring so this might work for me. I have it so I might as well give it a try. I appreciate your help and offer to sell me your spring.
I just need a spring, I plan to run it "locked out" but just want to drop it.
Just an FYI, I think Psylo springs work as well if you can get your hands on one.
i slammed my pike. lost adjustability though.
what adjustability did you lose?
you dont necessarily need a shorter spring to lower a pike. i lowered my old u-turn pike by cutting the rod on the bottom of the spring down. Then I drilled out the end up to the right size and tapped in some new threads. the fork will bottom more easily when this is done because the spring rate thasent changed, just run a bit more compression to compensate.
Ah.. thats intelligent downey.. never thought of that... I run my fork "locked out" most times anyhow. Awesomee. just fixed two things.. what to do with my old medium pike spring, and the need for a duke spring 
Pargyle?? get argyke lowers with arglye springs or see if you can fit argyle springs in there because they are super stiff
I'm tryin to run my fork at around 50-70. I use the compression/lockout and floodgate to dial in my stiffness...
