The HT and FS both have the same length CS. The HT has 180mm cranks where the FS is on 175s. I have very comfortable climbing positions on both bikes.
I run the lockout on the G1's EXT - this is the first bike I've had where the shock's activeness hinders climbing.
As long as I'm riding all three bikes often enough switching isn't an issue. If it's been a while then that first ride back can be a bit weird. As I get older it seems increasingly important to be as versatile and adaptable as possible.
