Hello,
I got into mountain biking last year, bought a Norco Fluid HT. I ride Fromme once a week (when allowed). I'm absolutely still a beginner and is learning basic techniques. Trail I do, Bobsled/Espresso/Oil Can/Leopard/Crankum...etc, some Seymour black trails as well. I like my hardtail and is very useful to learn how to ride properly, my question is, is it too early to upgrade? My options are:
1) Upgrade fork: Should I increase travel on my fork? It currently has 120mm, should I get something like a 140-150mm? It will obviously change the slack angle on my bike so I'm not sure if that's a good idea
2) Used Full Suspension: Get a decent used Full Suspension for $2-3k
3) Status Quo: Ride until I can't go any faster on a 120mm hardtail
Thoughts and suggestions?
Thanks,
