Seeing the good response Peter got here, I'll give it a go. I'm also building my own endomorph-on-100mm-rim bike. Right now my dilemma is fork geometry, specifically how much rake to use, or how much trail to shoot for. Where I'm from, and based on my preferences, the riding is about 50/50 split between:
1.) light snow cover, highly technical (it was a good day if there were few dabs and nothing got broken in a low speed crash) tight twisty singletrack riding.
2.) snowmobile trails, mostly the sort without any straightaways or flats.
Lots of trail, little trail, something in between? I'm mostly interesting in why, from anyone with snow bike experience, and an opinion on the subject.
