Hi all,
I've got an old 03 Hardrock that's still going strong but the original 100mm travel Rockshox Judy fork is stuffed. I'll be replacing it with a new steed mid next year but in the meantime I'm considering changing the forks to rigid carbon forks for sh#ts & giggles.
I'm thinking these might do the trick.

The idea would be to make as much as possible a fun XC oriented machine, given the inherent limitations of the Hardrock frame and mostly stock components.
I've played around with building up road and track bikes but never with mountain bikes so I'm a little unsure of the traps and pitfalls. Is what I propose doable, a bad idea?
Thanks
