Without question 160 fork with a Minion up front.
I'd like impunity for the rough sections, but I want something that can keep
tamer trails when riding with friends and family interesting enough.
To me, it's the type of bike that can be that everything compromise: with
Minions (SS rear) I can get in over my head and roll out rubber side down, SI
and 140mm travel is about all the efficiency my fat arse requires, and 160mm
of fork travel still makes sense at White Mesa, or AngelFire… but that doesn't
have a Wreckoning/E29/Slash/Mega290/Range29 out of the question either.
My only real limitation is that I'm basically on a RockyMtn Instinct budget
version of the NSMB Shremedy, and it's damned good for the money.
