It's definitely a small, that travis came off my brothers bike. He swapped it for the boxxer that was originally on that bike because we couldn't find a spring for the travis anywhere.

Not sure why you would want to swap it out. It's a good fork, you just can't find heavier springs for it.

Fork isnt ideal for jumping,works great in rock gardens but I freeride so i need a stiffer fork

Should i get a single crown fork? The fork on the bike is 235mm and it makes the head angle very steep

First of all.

Congrats on your bike! :clap:

Jeez I'm almost relieved since I know you were looking for so long.

And a good choice too!

 

Don't worry about your feet touching the ground when seated. Its not important. I'm sure you will be fine with stand over when the bike is stationary.

 

Don't worry about changing your components unless something breaks. A single crown fork will steepen your head angle. Not slacken it. The longer your fork the slacker your head.

 

Its also fine for jumping! She's no park slut but can definitely take some solid hits after being in the air. I hardly see long travel single crown bikes anymore anyways. I'm actually building one. Most of the freeride events I see have guys on dual crowns so...

 

Besides, who cares about labels anyways freeride, downhill, tomato, tomarto. 

 

Your money is better spent on some good protective gear and for when you actually need to service or fix something. Enjoy the ride my bru :thumbup:
