How Can I dampen front end jolts
I have test ridden a Fuji Cross Pro cyclocross bike that is really tight and light, I would like to use it for commuting and hopefully get started riding on and off road. However I noticed during a test ride in a parking lot that when I hit a bump (the kind I'm sure I would come across during my riding on the streets) there seemed to be noticeable jolt coming from the front end. Is there something that can be done to dampen this? Would gel handle bar wraps or suspension seat post make a real difference. I also rode a Specialized Tricross sport which rode smoother and has these rubber deals on the fork, but it was noticeably heavier too.
