Popped a sus fork on the Krampus

Krampus

Been riding this bad boy fully rigid for a few years, which is great for bikepacking and smooth-ish trails, but around here in the PNW, I find myself getting pretty rattled on rooty descents. Also recently upgraded the grips to the PNW Loam XL grips. Loving the wider grips.

Other upgrades I’ve made through the years after buying it stock include the PNW Loam dropper post and Shimano SLX hydraulic breaks. Of course, I’m going tubeless. Surprisingly, the Selle Italia saddle it came with works well for me. And the Dirt Wizards are still holding up with a few plugs. Will eventually switch to faster rolling tires, but these are sufficient.
