Spitfire V2 in stealth mode. I peeled the fork stickers and most of the frame stickers and now animals don't see me coming. That's probably not a good thing since there are grizzlies in our zones! So far no close encounters.

Stealthy goodness! Run chainless too so the bears don't hear you nor see you, like a trail ninja.

Great! I recently added a stiffer spring and HLR damper into the fork as well now front and back are totally managed!

Nice, its funny but when you swap forks on different bikes you need to change the springs or air pressure.
I think its due to how the fork and rear suspension settles in correlation with the head angle. But on your HT the fork was fine right? Then you come to this new bike and you need more spring. I like when my head gets all confused at why or how but come to a sense of calmness knowing it all makes sense. Hahhahahahha
The DB looks really good is why I ask!

it was awesome on the stylus but you're right, as soon as I went to the full squish it started to bottom out in certain situations. Part of that might be that the spring is just done. Not sure if that happens but this fork saw a lot of use! The HLR damper it excellent and the extra firm spring makes me feel like Jared Graves!

Don't know but my comments were not showing up as I was typing them. Then other people's comments were showing up under my name. I could tell by their comments it was happening to them too. Like all the links were being messed with. I dunno.

gonna guess 32. I didn't spend much effort trying to go light but I don't really notice it either.

never say perfect bike. That would mean I can't buy something else! I really like it, no question. But I'm sure there's something out there that's better. The fun is in trying to find it! And I predominantly use this bike for what most people would call enduro riding.
