Anybody running Fox 36's or similar on their 456? I'm considering putting a pair on my Ti456. Any experiences, opinions?

Going to be moving back to the Peaks if that makes any difference

Hi Vinny I ran Talas 36 on mine for a while but it felt like too much fork for the frame - nose-heavy and no need for more than 140mm

I ran 140's on mt 456 (Summer season) and they were bang on mainly but sometimes felt a bit much. 130mm was boss though.

160 would be too much,unless you ran a 29" wheel at the back perhaps.... ๐Ÿ™‚

Get the floats and drop them down to 130 (although the 36s at 130 are still about 10mm taller than the 32s at 130. Then just enjoy the extra stiffness up front. This is my plan for my Pace 305 when I can afford it.
