Folks, my 29er currently has On-One rigid carbon forks and I've been taken by some of the special offers on suspension forks that have been hitting my inbox this last week. Thing is I've never had a bike with suspension so, apart from knowing to get the right steerer tube size, I'm clueless.
It's the travel bit that I don't get, I'm guessing the numbers referred to are the amount the fork will compress, or the maximum it can compress. My frame was designed with the On-One fork in mind but also the potential for future suspension. Should I only be looking at the shorter travel suspension forks?
