I bought a Giant Trance X0 29er last fall and overall I am impressed with the bike. I do however feel the front fork is underwhelming compared to the rest of the bike. The information of the fork is as follows
Fox 32 Float 29 FIT CTD w/ 15QR thru-axle, tapered, 120mm Travel.
Sense the rear of the bike has 130mm of travel I would like to see what can be done on the front. I read a post on this site(can't find it again) where an individual had changed a clip position internally and converted the fork to have 130mm of travel. Does anybody have information and or pictures on how this is performed? There was also talk of shimming and changing to a higher viscosity oil for improved performance...again is there any more info or experiences?
So, short of putting a Pike or Fox 34 on this bike what can or should I do to get better performance out of the Fox 32?
