I want to put a suspension fork on my 1 x 1. Just wondering what you think is the best size 80 or 100 mm. Thanks.

The frame is designed for their rigid fork which is corrected for 80mm. I don't have much time riding different travels, so can't really say if you'd notice much difference between the two.

I like the Marzocchi MX Comp. It is a very solid fork, typical Marzocchi stiffness, and the price is right.

The only suspended 1x1 I have ever ridden had this exact fork on it and it bseemed like a good fit, handled the trail well...

i would not go above 80mm. i have had a 1x1 setup with an 80 or less (sid) on it and like the way it handled.
