My new shop carries kona so I'm gonna get a cowan ds soon. I've got my build pretty much dialed in except for the fork. My question is does anyone think a 120 or 130mm fork will rake it out too much? And another little question, not that its gonna be used too much for this application but, how is it for moderate downhill runs? It won't be my primary dh rig, mainly just my s.s. freeride bike, but it would be fun to take it to wilson's every now and then. Thanks guys. And if you have any suggestions on builds please tell. Basically its gonna be like this:
Fork: Pike or Totem 2step set to 135
Wheelset: I9 blue laced fr wheels.
Crankset: Deity
Brakes: Hayes el caminos w/ 203mm rotors
Bar/stem: deity
Headset: FSA PigDH
Tires: Maxxis High rolller 2.4's
