hippy in reply to @Retro_Bastard

I think I saw one of them somewhere but dismissed it as a bit too far towards trail bike. Maybe not. I wonder about a smaller fork later on?

wheelbase.co.uk - anyone used them before? Never heard of them myself so I'd be wary of anyone reporting stock of anything given the shenanigans with the tyre purchase the other month.

I assume you can swap out the air spring in on those to reduce the travel to 120mm if you want which will give you a 68° head angle which is more xc territory. Reviews seem good for the bike and everyone seems to really rate the fork.

Tokens don't reduce travel but increase the progression of an air fork. You have to change the air shaft to change the travel; neither expensive nor difficult to do.

Wheelbase are good, Kona Honzo gooder.
