Luv this . Much needed article to get new people into the sport.
I would suggest riding the bikes stock , but with a modest investment in a 7 inch rotor and metallic pads .
After a getting to know the bike . I believe each 25 cms of travel is equivalent of about one degree of HTA. So an 150 mm fork verses a 100 mm fork would give you a slightly higher BB and a 2 degree slacker HTA .
Looking forward to next write up .
Over forked I would be stoked to ride any of these hardtails .
