Isn't one of the selling points of chubbie tyres the manner in which they eliminate the need for suspension?
Tidy machine though bro.

The handling is simply brilliant. Those 3" wheels cushion the bumps really well, you feel like you're riding a motorbike but with the control of a top end mountain bike. Weight? A respectable 12.5 kg. The stache 9 can also take 27.5+ wheels though i'm happy with the 29+ size.
Downsides? Its only got 11 gears (single chain ring) and whilst the gear range is fine for me, it may put off some people.
