my mate has a rigid fork but wants to upgrade to a suspension one he has a highbrid (claud butler urban 100).do you think he would just get away with fitting a 80mm travel or would that kill the geometry of the bike?

    would not be going over 60mm of travel on that. NB wheel size.

    we'll ur limited to 700c hybrid forks and as nick said 60mm is what the urban 2-3-400 come with

    also ask yourself why u want sus on a hybrid, sounds like he needs a mtb
