DW (or others who have experience riding these bikes) ,
I am looking to buy the Bakuto (mid level parts spec) and will be swapping out the Splice for an '05 z1 fr1. I like the way the geometry feels with a 125mm fork, I have ridden my friend's several times on the trail. However, I really like slack bikes so I am thinking that a 150mm fork would feel great. I tried out the Waka-Gashira line, which comes with the 150mm Stance Flow, in the parking lot and if felt okay. Just wanted to get another opinion on how the bike will ride. Thanks.
