The Pike has to add a few pounds, but it's a great fork. Looks like that thing can haul down hill, and if it can climb like you said than you're set!

My Pike Air is damn light, probably not a whole lot heavier than your Revelation, if any...
Though I don't have U-Turn...

I run a 2.3 in the front and a 2.1 in the rear and it works out pretty well for me.
