I am surprise they didn't go with 10 speed on this bike. There is still a bit of it about, its cheap and you can upgrade easily. Zee mechs are also good and cheap and relatively bomb proof.
Agreed on the rigid fork (you are preaching to the converted). It would also appeal to those who want a simple second bike that can still tackle proper trails.
