I have been toying with the idea of making my 2017 Kona explosif into more of a road, gravel all around fun bike. It is a hard tail with a Fox 34 120 mm front fork. I am thinking of replacing the front fork with a rigid carbon fork, adding smaller, smoother tires. Also maybe cut the handle bars shorter and add short bar end levers and also maybe tighten up the rear cassette with closer cogs. I have looked at Carbon Cycles forks and see one that has a 15mm QR front fork that looks pretty sweet. Anyone here done something like this or have ideas for me or can suggest another fork option? Thanks, Cheers Roscoe
