Are these normally quoted "sagged"? I have a rigid fork with an axle to crown of 445mm and wondered what equivalent suspension forks are out there. I'm not sure if the measurements they quote are sagged or not.

Not usually sagged - full extension.

440mm rigids are usually for frames that'll take a 100-130mm suspension fork but obviously the exact effect depends on the frame/sus fork combo fitted as different brands vary a lot in A-C for the same travel.

I just wonder whether my rigid forks will make my new frame a dog. I can't afford new suspension forks yet so will be building up my mmmBop from my old hardtail which has rigid forks. I [i]know[/i] the mmmBop is probably wasted with rigid forks but one step at a time!

I guess I should just do it and ride it 😆
