Uh-oh . . . the other side of my brain is kicking in. A setup with the Loki for example and a lowered Z1 would be lighter, and cheaper. It would be slower going downhill but hardtails are slower than FS bikes to begin with. I guess I need to take a stroll through the DJ forum.
Now you're thinking.

Roger on the tractor trailer thing, Soul Cycles says that the Loki's 69 degree HA was measured with a fork with a 452mm Axle-Crown length. That would probably put the HA near 65 degrees with a 7" fork. Yikes.

FYI: If you are interested in Soul Cycles, the Titan is designed around a 6" fork. Works for me.
