I'm creating something like the Marin Pine Mountain I had in ~1995 or so, using a recently acquired frame & fork. Because I'm a broken middle-aged bloke with arthritic wrists (rather than the whippet I was back then) I need some kind of shock absorption at the front.
What should I go for? Budget isn't huge. Back in the day I think I had Manitou 4s; I have some Mag21s and could buy a Flexstem - had one of those on the Specialized Hardrock Sport that got me into mountain bikes around 1992-93-ish.
Opinions?
