I think I've only used about 140 to 150 of my front fork and about 120 for the rear...

Seems like Proclaimer is the most hardcore ler...

Fox fit has anti bottom up resistance.

Assuming 120mm/160mm = 75% of travel used. The bottom out rbber feature takes 25% of the total travel?!

I have around 12" travel in the rear and approx 10" travel upfront on my current rig. Using it all up will be a painful affair... LOL

tat wont work..

Can... you must belip...

You must use your rear travel...your legs also suspension maa...
As Brian Lopez puts it in his book....hehehe

I no hardcore la. I noob jer. No skills thats why used up alot of travel. You all pro can use bike and fly, i cannot

Now everyone can fly what ....eheheh

Anyone uses 29 wheels and fork at front , then 26 frame?

the geo gonna be super slack

Like a chopper...big in front..small at the back heheh

Interested to know about 29er ni...is it the real deal or just hype?

Technically speaking its the real deal. One full rotation of the crank for 26" is slower than a bike on 29". Put it simple 7th gear on a 29er feels like 5th gear on a 26" bike, lighter to pedal but same speed.

But i wonder why it is not catching up

I think sooner or later it will....Maybe these are some reasons why its a bit slow:

1. Upgrading it is not as straight forward (costly)
You cant just change the frame...need to change the wheels...fork

2. People are sceptical about the benefits

3. People think its not meant for short people

4. It looks odd (a lot of us still based our judgements on looks)

29er is expensip...

Life lives once...

Wonder why its so expensive Im sure the reason the manufacturers are giving is because of R&D. Ahh new stuff tends to be cheaper as time goes on. Till then i'll enjoy my current bike !
