LOL I'm tempted to do the opposite - from the RockShox Air that came with my Spec Chisel to carbon rigid! Thanks for sharing, hope you have fun !

@@NeRR2 yep you gotta do whatever makes you comfortable on the bike. If I hadn’t broken my wrist, I probably would’ve never thought to put the suspension fork on but I ride over a lot of rocks and rooty terrain so the rigid fork is kinda harsh on my wrists. I will say that the carbon fork made the front end of the bike very lightweight. Very easy to pick up the front end of the bike. I may put the carbon fork back on for snow riding, we’ll see. Thanks for commenting! I appreciate it

Nice. But why does the fork looks backwards?

@@AhSonnyBoikf that’s how manitou makes them. Not sure why but if you look at all the manitou forks, they all look backwards

How tall are you? Local shop has a medium also and I'm 5ft 9inch but it seems little small just looking at it.

I’m 5.10 and got this exact Farley 5 in size LARGE. The bike is above and beyond my expectations. Super grippy on the fast downhill trails,- fells stable as if it’s on rails. Also riding this Farley is on beach, Bike just keeps going like a tractor through the sand. If you are 5.9 you’d need L size for sure. Correct sizing is where there’s no compromise. Trek now has these Farleys on crazy discount sales. Check Trek website.
