My spelling is especially shite today.
Mines designed to be a compromise between snow trekker, and trail hardtail. The short effective stem length, and long fork. Put less weight over the front wheel than I'm used to. May need to lower the front end a tad (easily done) for trail stuff. Balance feels spot on for snow though. I can smash into 1/2 foot lumps of frozen sludge without feeling unstable. The light front end means its less effort over long stretches of what the merkin skiers call 'death cookies'.
