I am thinking about making a 29er hardtail MTB frame where I can swap between rigid forks for heavy off road touring and suspension forks for single track.
Trying to figure out the geometry I need to settle on a suspension fork. What is the value for money tapered suspension fork these days? And what kind of travel am I looking for?
Currently I am riding a Inbred 29er with Rock Shox Reba 100mm travel and 490mm a-c Salsa Firestarter forks.
But as you can see I need a larger frame
