though call on the SL vs. the HD140. was thinking of a more XC ride (ie. the SL) but that 140HD looks killer. like the 1 degree slacker, slightly longer WB and HTA adjustability with an angle adjust. seems like a pretty versatile ride.
anyone with an HD140 locally? obsession guys - you have a view on the SL vs. HD140 for a shore XC bike?
All the HDs that have left our locale have been of the 160mm variety. They have been equipped either with 160mm forks (Fox Float 160 or Rockshox Lyric) or with 180mm Fox Talas RC2 forks.
…
If you were a big guy (or a hack!) we would say grab an HD-140 and get a Fox 36 Float RLC dropped to 140mm to match up.
For your stated application we would lean to the Mojo SL.
