Reply To: Fully Rigid

#268430

My rigid gets riden more than my full suspension for a few reasons. The biggest reason is that it always works, not much to break with no gears, no suspension, and mechanical brakes. I also like that it looks very unassuming so I can ride for a few hours and head back into town and lock it up while I get food and beer without worrying about it. I also genuinely have more fun on the low speed tech.

Big days on the bike in remote areas usually means I take the karate monkey because it fits a big frame bag full of supplies and if anything brakes it takes 5 minutes and some hex keys to fix.
