    Need a replacement frame to keep me going till warranty is sorted on my snapped FS. I am about to grab one of these as they look sturdy and good value. I'm going to run 120mm forks will that be OK do you reckon?

    Yes also….. I was looking at one for a long time. Admittidly i went for the Ti 456, only cos it is Lynskey made. One of our Tuesday possy has the Duster Ti and is a very nice bike.

    The frame is designed for a 100mm fork. A 120 on the front will make the front end wander on anything but a shallow gradient. I'm running a 90mm stem with flat bars; with 100mm forks it's still not that planted on the climbs. It wouldn't be to much of a problem if the seat tube was a little bit slacker but for climbing I reckon the weight is to far rearward.

    Obviously depends on the axle-crown length – so do some comparisons. I run mine with an Marz MX comp 100mm upfront and it feels good. A longer fork will also elevate the bb a tad too high.
