I think it’s the same geo but they say the new rear triangle is stiffer - at least from what I can remember in the Original press release.

First Look: Roval's 1,240 Gram Wheels Are Designed to Protect Your Tires

I run a smuggler too and live in Nebraska. I have two wheelsets, but I will say, I cannot keep my light wheelset true for the life of me and keep breaking spokes. I think part of the problem is, that bike always makes me want to party, even when I'm trying to smash XC laps. I end up keeping my heavier duty wheelset on it almost all the time because it is far more predictable and reliable. That said the bike does change quite a bit with a light wheelset and different tires.

Behind the Numbers: Norco Sight

Depends how big is “big” I’m 6’4 215lbs and it offers way more tune ability for me at a 30psi increase with way more small bump and ramp up. Yea if you weigh 270 you are starting to look SOL no matter what change you make - get a different bike with more progressive leverage curve. @PHeller:

Rockshox Pike RCT3 29, 42mm offset

$350 USD

140mm Rockshox Pike RCT3, boost (110x15mm) 29er mtb fork. The tapered steer tube Has been cut to 8 inches. Was on an XL frame so “should” happily fit all frame sizes. Approximately 70 hours of ride time. Well maintained with 3 lower services and recently all new SKF wiper seals. Works perfect, works Just like it did new out of the box. Scratches on steerer from pulling crown race on and off. Comes with sram quick real release Axle. I also have a 130mm debonair spring if you wanted to lower the fork 10mm. Only reason I’m selling is because I am a big rider and wanted to bump up travel and stiffness and bought a Rockshox lyrik. This includes shipping and PayPal fees - get it while it’s hot!

BC Parks Closes All Provincial Parks Due to Covid-19

@kookseverywhere: I like your last paragraph. What that looks like is different for a lot of people. Difficult to say when the government is providing you with a good or bad idea to embrace.

So you weren’t going to the grocery store while the parks were open? Logic doesn’t quite make sense...You will be going to the grocery store regardless. This is one less place to contract or spread the virus.
