Thanks.. I'm probably going to dump the fork and get something a bit lighter. Perhaps a Pike, I'm undecided. As it stands, the thing is a tank and while I enjoy the confidence it gives me, I could stand to shed a few pounds.

Pedaling is typically done while standing. You want the seat out of the way for jumping, etc.
