So I'm riding on a 2014 Trance 27.5 1, which has fox evolution talas 140mm forks, and fox float rear. I've changed their seals twice, but not interested in spending the money to get the internals serviced as they don't seem like the most amazing suspension out there. Could never dial the small bump compliance to my liking, would always just blow through travel if you ever got it remotely close...
I'm thinking I'd like to upgrade to something sweet.
This would be my first suspension upgrade, so I'm not sure what I have to look out for in terms of sizes with Giants steerer tubes (over drive??).
I'm thinking either a fox 34 factory float 140mm, or an RS pike solo 150mm...
I do find the talas to be handy at times, but never liked that the spring rate seemed to get changed.... does that occur on these new forks as well?
On the rear, I liked the look of the new Fox float X2.
What do I have to look out for specifically when getting things to work with my bike? Is there heaps to setting them up (tuning?) for my frame geomtery?
