where do you ride? what do you ride? bike, trails, big hits, long climbs.......necessary factors for consideration
Where: currently residing in Houston, TX so mostly XC with some free riding areas thrown in. Planning on making some trips to colorado, new mexico, and possibly cali this summer, hence the fork upgrade.sambs827 said:where do you ride? what do you ride? bike, trails, big hits, long climbs.......necessary factors for consideration
I was kind of thinking that same thing. I am still going to need the bike to perform on trails when I get back home.jcook1989 said:Talas. You'll appreciate the travel adjust when you're climbing.
Try this : http://bikegeo.muha.cc/ I don't know how precise it is but It'll give you at least a good idea.nobrakes2007 said:Is there any way to determine exactly how much the BB height would be raised without actually having the specific fork on the bike?
How quickly can you adjust the travel?jcook1989 said:Talas. You'll appreciate the travel adjust when you're climbing.
Travel adjust is a lot quicker. 3 clicks change the travel in 20mm increments I think.NWS said:How quickly can you adjust the travel?
My AM bike has a Pike with u-turn, and it's enough of a hassle that I never use it. Is Talas better that way?
Where are you getting a 4" travel for the frame? Gt has it listed as a 6" travel frame....Quarashi said:Don't you think it's a bit much putting a 7" fork on a 4" travel frame?
