After switching from a full suspension hybrid to a totally non suspension frame, I kinda miss it. I felt extra soreness after the first two weeks. Especially on the hind side. With that being said, I am hoping to get a suspension seat even though I'm getting used to no suspension. I like to keep my wheels pumped close to max pressure so I tend to feel everything. I couldn't lock my front suspension on my other bike so being that I'm on street, I did take a spill when I locked up my brakes to avoid a car. My front springs did what they were supposed to but also threw me off balance and onto the street. For safety reasons, I prefer no front suspension. (That could also be my fault due to bad riding technique.)
