Just about to send the .dwgs for the prototype of my hardtail. I want to get a build going for it. Light Light Light stiff stiff stiff is the theme.
Since the Argyle RCT is just as expensive as a Fox, I figure I may as well go the full monty. So I have some questions for those of you who run Fox on you dj bike.
I am looking at either the 831 or the 36 Float (shimmed to 100mm)
How does the fork handle torsional stress from footjams?
Do you REALLY use the high and low speed compression adjustments?
For the 831, do the dropouts on the fork have compatibility issues with any 15to20mm axle shims?
I really like the idea of having a sub 4.5lb fork for this build, because I am trying to keep it under 25lbs. The frame should come out to be about 4.6lbs give or take a few ounces.
If you must, give me an in depth personal review on your fox fork, I want to know how they handle abuse. Thanks guys
