Was interested in peoples thoughts on buying a newer patrol adding cascade link for 180mm rear and boxxer 180mm up front for park duty. Compared to say something like a frs, this would be used at mainly whistler and other bc bike parks.

Thank for the replies in advance

Late reply to an old thread, but this is exactly what I did. I rode the bike stock for a while and then switched for Park season. The stock bike was cool, but I really prefer this set up. It feels perfect for park, but I can climb with the 210 seatpost and 51t cog. It handles everything at the park and the geometry is terrific.

I barely notice the difference with the fork. More noticeable is just the plushness of 180 coil with the long travel fork.
