Re: Glove 'system' advice sought
As with everyone else. For many years I sought the perfect glove combo for when the winter hits. For past few years I had given up on breathable and waterproof (you can either have one or the other I concluded) and conceded to some NorthFace Gaunlets which are totally waterproof. Used them for a 500...

Got myself a Rockshox Reba Boost on the cheap from ebay but then Travis emailed me to say he had found a dusty Prong under the cobwebs (had a slight imperfection that you'd not notice)... Now have 2 Boost forks and in the dilemma of which to try out/run first (suspension or rigid)... Thoughts welcom...

Hey. Thanks for that buddy. We can compare notes on how they ride on rigid aswell as hopefully front sus next year some time.

Re: Rigid fork for SolarisMAX
Hmm, thoughts have moved to the possibility of riding the outer Hebrides but my SolarisMAX has 120mm suspension forks and B+ rubber. I'd already been contemplating a second set of wheels in 29er flavour... But it would make sense to have a set of rigid forks as well (would come in handy for the B+ ...

I'll go first. Chronologically: Boardman 26er carbon fork including steerer. Came on the team rigid and I only got rid of cos I had a 26er Fox that needed using. Unbelievably comfy for a carbon fork and managed to do a loop including Jacobs Ladder on the fork with inly very minimal hand numbness and...

For the record. The carb Transmitter arrived. A thing of beauty it looks and feels solidly built and stiff...

That's a B+ tyre in both cases. The 29er combo is only a little taller using Ardents. You're right though, there is tons of clearance.
