i'm sure a fair amount of people ride these so...
i ride my pike at the lowest travel setting almost 100% of the time but i have noticed that im only getting about an inch or so of travel before the fork stops compressing and feels like it has bottomed. most of the time when i land it feels and sounds like the fork bottomed when it only compressed about an inch..took it to the LBS and they say it may be something to do with the spring being too stiff, but i weigh 170lbs so i doubt that. it seems like there is probably a problem...doesn't make much of a difference when i raise the fork up, still won't compress past that same point. any advice? i will be calling Sram this week.
