Gear Talk / a monkey on the great divide route

« on: February 13, 2007, 12:05:35 am »

Hello folks,

I hope to do the great divide trail in near the future.  I have read ACA's (*Bikecentennial's) article on choosing a bike (plenty of good advice).  I intend to use panniers not a trailer.  I am interested to hear opinions about the use of a karate monkey with a rigid fork and wide tires vs. a standard hardtail (Soma) with suspension fork.  I do like to keep things simple but I am not as young as I...

Thanks,
Dave

*They will always be Bikecentennial to me.
