A question for the masses. I have looked for an answer to this question for sometime now. I have a SC superlight which is pre-2007. Santa cruz has told me that putting a fork longer than 100mm will be a safety concern as the head tube was not designed for such stresses....I have also noticed in the latest edition of MBA mag that this very question was asked. The answer didn't answer the question, only towing the "PC" line saying that if you put a longer fork on, you might want to start hucking off some crazy cliff. Can I put 120mm fork on this bike without having to worry about death if I stay on my regular hills? (I have 105mm in there right now) More importantly has anyone else done this, and if so, are you still alive?
thanks for the input!
