I've got a question for MegaTrail riders: does the suspension behavior (particularly pedaling and leverage rate) change going from Trail to Gravity mode? I'm under the impression that it's just a travel and geo change, not a leverage change. So it will be a bit more active from the increased travel and proportionately greater sag (in terms of mm, not %) but won't be really changing the pedaling platform. I've played around with the Crush/Plush on my Smash, and that's quite different.
I'm puzzling over how I'd do a MegaSmash, trying to balance my ideas of travel balance front/rear with preferred geometry. I'm thinking a 62.5 stroke resulting in 149mm rear travel in Trail for everyday riding should be pretty sweet. Save 159mm Gravity mode for shuttling or really long descents.
