was thinking of one of these new babies for my chumba... but just bought some goodies and am a lil broke for a while... Oh well... my current boxxer is still fine... XD
good job on buying a "slopestyle" bike to put dual crowns on
why didnt you just buy a socom?
why dont you just stop telling me how i want to ride my bike. i dont use it for slopestyle, i use it for dh and all mountain. a socom is over kill for me, and i cant put my seatpost up on a socom and go for an xc ride now can i. i go to the alps every year and find 160mm forks to be too little travel but the frames 6.5 is plenty in the rear, so a DC fork is a sensible option. i wouldnt nec. ride with it on all the time, but it would make my bike plough dh just a little bit better. ever heard of rider preference? dont attempt to lecture me on my purchase.
rider prefrence? people who know what they ride buy a bike suited to it, not a bike what looks cool
Right, you clearly didnt read what i just said. I use my bike for DH and AM. i go to france once a year to ride in the alps and feel that it would handle it alot better with more travel up front. UK trails are also suited to a shorter travel bike and i like my bikes small. if you need proof that a ss will take a DC fork look at intense CRC team, they rode the SS at seaotter with travis's. my bike is suited to what i ride, and it looks cool. i dont know why im justifying myself to you retard, but i have done. and to the guy with a reign, go for it a dc would be fine on your bike.
