Cheers Martin!
Bikes are so good now. I mean, you can just go ride them, but I think it’s fun to mess around with the norms here on the Shore.
A rigid fork is an investment even for folks that own a hardtail so I get why it’s a hard sell. Even though it is amazing fun with new geo, big brakes, plus rubber (2.8” Vigi!) and CushCore.
Friction thumbies are differently fun and like I say, it costs less than a tire to give it a try! Plus, they may frustrate for the first ride or two but they’ll make you a much better rider in a way HG+ - shift anywhere, anyway, under any load - never will.
