Though I expect he prefers to be paid for such advice. ( & rightly so )
The folks from On-one are often on MTBR. So they're not all idiots ;)
Actually meant folk like myself. Who can spout geometry facts and maths all day. But lack the alchemy to actualy translate that into real would ride quality.
In other 29er news...
I was thinking today about a rabbit hole wheelset, built on fat hubs. For the fatbike (with a enabler fork). For commuting outside of winter. Running 2.35" big apples*.
I want an enabler anyway for winter use.
Probably rebuild the lefty hub onto a rolling darryl rim, and use the offset to fit a 4.8" Bud (if you can, you should I guess)
So I'd effectlivly have two forks and three wheelsets.
(*Would be cheaper just to put black floyds on the winter wheelset though. Definitly want fat slicks of some kind.)
