Hi.
I have an MTB with 100mm forks. Rockshox dual air. Very nice.
Due to an old injury, i run them a bit soft to help my back/arms. Probably meaning it runs like a shorter form and bounces a bit more
Compare to my wife's it obviously runs the bottom bracket a bit lower, and catches on obstacles a bit more often.
It's not seriously bad, but worth fixing if I can
Would it be reasonable to fit 120-130mm forks to help compensate, they would then probably run on average more like the 100mm I currently have should run.
My wife says so, but then she wants the Rockshox's for her bike
I know both way's the Geometry will be a bit wrong, but closer? or close enough?
Thanks
Jeff
