Fork Travel

[johntimber]

Hi,

The bike I like the look of (the cube Ltd Race 2008) has only 85mm, am I better off getting a bike with 100mm as my friend recommends, will I really notice the difference? I weigh 87kgs. Does this 85mm travel mean the bike is designed more for racing? I want a XC / all mountain bike for about £800, the only thing stopping me clicking confirm order is the front forks apparant lack of travell. What do you reckon?
Any help here would be most welcome.

Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
