Definitely wasn’t an issue for me on the Remedy on GSM. No problem riding through #3 and XMas corners.
On R&R I definitely hit the hard stop in the tight left to start the switchbacks before the uphill log ride. Still pedaled through no problem and I think that’s a situation where the Knock Block can help as I’m not fighting the tire’s tendency to flop over when steered past a certain point on a bike with a slackish-to-slacker HTA. This tendency is greater with a 29” wheel so if anything I think I’d appreciate the KB more in this specific situation on a Fuel.
Downhill there’s a few cornering situations on Pipeline where I hit the hard stop in steeper sections with tight turns at the bottom. A bit disconcerting the first couple of times but not a problem when expecting it.
