Wow.....I just got done installing my front shock and my front end is now at least 2 inches taller. I think my old 'suspension corrected' rigid fork was not long enough for this frame to begin with as my bottom bracket was lower than other mtb's I've looked at. I think I'm going to like my new setup. :D

I found the same thing with my Salsa Juan Solo, it always felt like an invitation to go over the bars. The height increase from the susp. fork made it feel like a mt bike. I think you will really enjoy the difference Fixer.

Thanks, I'll experiment with the settings. It's been quite a while since I've owned my last set of shocks.

Fixer, Now that looks like a Mt Bike. Geometry looks good!

Purchsed a saddle bag. It holds 2 tubes, CO2 kit, a snack with just a tiny bit of room left over.
After riding with tubes and CO2 in the back pocket, and havin' the jersey hang down to past my A**, this seamed like a great solution.
And Ya know what, It is!!
