Thats a monster amount of travel. I would love to take one of those 8" travel, 40+ pounder, 3.0 tired bikes for a ride one of these days. But for now, I'm just not worthy. I'm going to give the DJ 2 a ride and see how it turns out (thought I read someplace that they weigh like 6.88 pounds though?) thats a good 2 pounds more then what I have up front now.
