• Have you thought about buying another bike? The geometry looks all kinds of insane with that fork - assume it’s a lot longer?

    If the riding isn’t that wild, ditch the dropper, or get a bar mounted lever that hinges or one with a seat lever?

  • Aye, yeah, it’s 130 vs the 100 mm that this rigid fork is sus corrected to. In reality though the stack works out to be around 45mm more, because the sus fork has a longer offset I think.
    I might put the sus fork back on but tbh it felt totally overkill on my local trails and for the Dales Divide, I wanted space to carry extra water, hence the rigid fork.

    This is the second bike already, no space for more - I think I might play with tire pressures a bit before I start thinking about front suspension
