Ahoy there!
Looking at swapping my low-end Judy TK Silver from my 27.5+ bike for a Niner rigid carbon fork. Both are Boost.
The Judy claims an ATC measurement of 510mm, whereas the Niner rigid is 490mm. 20mm seems like a noticeable difference in ATC, but I'm curious--does ATC measurement on a suspension fork account for sag? I'm guessing that the sag on the Judy (130mm travel) would be around 20mm anyways, so that the ATC with sag on the Judy would be about the same as the ATC on the Niner...
What say ye--oh brilliant minds of PL?
Not using this bike / setup for anything more than riding around rail trails with my kid. So, frankly, I'm not all that worried about minor changes in handling!
Thanks all!
