It is a DT Swiss XMM 120, carbon steerer. This is the same fork that I have on my other Highball. I really like it a lot, love how I can drop it from 120mm to about 90mm, and lock it there for climbing, all with the small lever on the handlebars.
I am. You’re not.

I find the bar ends hugely beneficial to my riding.
No more dangerous than any other part of the bike TBH. I understand why they aren’t as fashionable with mountain biking for joe-average norm moved away (in the UK at least I think) from XC and more toward AM / #enduro / GNAR 🙂
