Happy Holidays!

Looking for observations\experience with the pros\cons of setting the BB on the 2011 Demo to the high position.

Have been riding the low position since I got the bike and love it. Many of the trails I have access to are tight so I am going to give the high BB setting a go. The high position steepens the head angle so I am thinking I should be able to make tighter turns a bit more efficiently.

Anything you can share is appreciated.

Thanks!

A steeper HA will let you turn sharper, as well as bring the tire closer to you changing your weight distribution across the ground. A higher BB will also combat hitting your pedals on things, and roll more roots due to increased clearence. A more vertical fork will also have better small bump sensitivity. Enjoy.
