Sefton - do you get any knee pain at the front of your knee?
As Molgrips says, try tinkering with the saddle position - it won't cost you nowt.
One other thing - is the sag at 25% with any Gate or platform on?
To reopen this thread. As I mentioned on page 1 I've just lowered the SIDs I bought for the flux down to 100mm. I bought the 120 SIDs to get a 15mm maxle but always had the intention to lower them. I rode it for a first good length proper ride yesterday post the reduction in fork travel and was really impressed how much better it climbed at the extrem end of the gradient range on climbs I've done before in other setups. Considerably less lifty and more control over direction. I'm glad I made the move and from a XC perspective I'd rather adjust my riding and improve my technique on the downy bits and have the benefit on the ups. Of course it does depend at what level of gradient you get off and push as to if it's worth it for you.....
I went from a 5 degree riser stem to zero degree on my flux to get better climbing ๐
