If you have the standard 45 zooks, you can order some new springs right away. Front braking makes the front forks hit bottom pretty easy.

Max gearing that you can find and fit on these bikes are around 14-40 or if your lucky, 14-38. Still makes commuting a bitch.

If you live in the city its OK. If you have roads where you can hit 70-80mph / 140kmh I would choose a bigger fourstroker.

Btw, 4,25 rear looks a bit thin and stupid. Does it job thought.
Hello Stian,

Thanks for the precisions. What do you mean by "Still makes commuting a bitch" ?
I will mostly ride below 140 kph (I live in the mountain).

Cheers

Antoine
