Stumpy FSR 120 mm travel. I am about 13 stone and ride 'all mountain' if that means anything. Is there any benefit going up to a 180 rotor given that my brakes work fine? I only ask as a lot of bikes seem to come with a 180 as standard.

180 on the front gives you better braking for a very small weight/cost penalty.
I have to admit that 160 only felt inadequate on a couple of occasions with my style of riding. When I went to the lakes I think.(Meta5 with Formula 18s)
I use 180 on the front of both my bikes now.Posted 2 years ago # -
160>>>180mm is about 20% more power (so i have read)
