I changed the 175mm cranks that came on my Bronson to 165mm, and also increased the fork to 160mm. It definitely helps. I think part of it is that 8 out of my 10 rides are up Seymour. I sometimes wonder if we folks on the north shore are a bit of a minority with respect to the type of terrain we climb on a regular basis, and the low BB height is not such an issue for others.
I also have a dpx2 rear shock which firms up a little better than the monarch that came on it, but it was a take off from an HTLT. Perhaps the tune could be better...
