[#1001223]

I am thinking of getting one of these and wondered if anyone had run one with Fox 36's on? I like the look of it but not sure if forks would suit? Before the comments start I dont like the look of the ragley, new bfe not through till jan and alpine well yeah i like that too. the single speed capabilities are drawing me to the decade tho.

Decade Virtue is only warranted for 130mm

what 36's do you have then? Vans? Because they're the only ones that cant be lowered. I have lowered 36 floats on my PA at 130mm and they feel great. I'd definitely recommend them on the front of a hardtail if you like to ride quite hard.

Josh that be fine the frames designed around a 100-130mm fork. Don't own one but came close to getting one.

Well, runs best at 100-115... anything more feels a bit odd. I have Uturn revs, and am fine running at 130 once in a while, but would hate to be stuck at that travel forever. 100mm forks are probably the most ideal really.
