hey, so I'm about to get a fork for a hardtail trail bike and I'm wondering what your experiences are with these forks slacking the head angle. I have a 97 Z2 on it now (finally needs replacement!) I'm looking at:
07 Fox 32 Vanilla (are these convertible to lower travel like the 125's and 130's?)
05 All Mountain 1 (110-130mm)
05 All Mountain 2 (130mm, would likely drop to 110)
I heard the All Mountains have a tall ride height, but with 140mm on the new vanillas, it seems like the fox may be just as high. If I drop the travel on the van or AM1, will it drop the ride height too? I realize both forks will slack my head angle, but my buddy has the same frame and his Vanilla 125RLC is fine. any help would really be appreciated, thanks!
