+1 to Scraggie Borsha(suspension forks take away the bucking bronco fun!).I started off-road 12 years ago fully-rigid and had slight shoulder problems from the bumping about.Fitted sus fork; this cured shoulder but made bike heavier and climbing worse.Eventually went back to fully rigid and realised I had developed a riding style which negated the need for suspension.I dont do extreme free-riding/North Shore stuff and it's win win all the way.
