The answer is: probably not

Seriously though, I am sooo loving the new fork. The 160mm is super plush and sucking it down to 120mm for the climbs is saweet!!

Are you riding that guy this Saturday?

I really want to buy a Pike for my Reign, but I'm curious to see how the extra 20mm of travel on that AM affects the DH handling.

I love the Float. I had trouble with the stock Swinger and felt like it was too plush on an already plush suspension design. I got a great deal on the Float ($100, brand new) and love it now.

It would be even better on the climbs with an RP3/RP23 though.

Yes, it should work well there.

The longer fork definitley slackens the HA--on an already slack HA--but I compensated with a longer stem and wider bars. You can ride it tomorrow to see if you want.

Fo' Sho'!!! I can't wait to hit that up again. Looks like we'll have a good group too.

You know, if it wasn't for the fact that my Haro is sitting in my garage collecting dust and calling me out for never riding it, I would never shuttle Noble again (never thought I'd say those words 50+ lbs ago).
