Only recently re-entering the FS space, I’ve been in a rigid bike for the last 10 years. (Jones SWB with a Truss fork) You’d never know how fun being under-biked is until you try it. Yes, everything is more comfy on a fully and drops and missed landings can sure sting, but like you said “It turns blue trails into blacks” which has its own appeal!

Riding my home trail once a week I love to mix it up with quirky bikes. I had an old 26er for a while with modern suspension and gears and 27.5 front, it is a lot of fun from time to time just because it's different. Having much less skills a rigid bike would likely be too much for my spine and ankles, though.

with bleeding the maguras mate best practice is to use the supplied bleed blocks and push and pull from the calliper syringe until all air bubbles are removed, then close off the system from both ends. its important you don't try to overfill the brake system as you can burst the internal reservoir in the master. align the caliper to the rotor then insert the pads, first few pulls will come to the bar and then come out as the pads make contact. make sure you bed the pads in properly, 20/30 stops from 20mph roughly

Riding a rigid definitely has a learning curve. You quickly learn how to ride light or pay the price. Riding a rigid with clipless pedals helps with this. You may not get down the trail as fast a fully but you can ride just about anything on one. Stooge Cycles has some interesting bikes in their line up. I'd like to get my hands on an MK6 frame and fork for a sweet custom build.

I've ridden my old Redline Monocog 29er for about 8,000 miles. A rigid frame is fantastic for cornering. Suspension is too inconsistent. With a rigid frame bike there are fewer variables. You're going to know what it's going to do in most situations and over time your muscles will store that information. Further, maintenance is a bummer. Fewer parts, less maintenance and more riding.

Thanks PS! These wide rims and such are all total cheater parts, so don’t feel lame or anything for going back to squish! Run what’s fun, what works for you, and what you’ve got available to ya!

The biggest difference with the Stooge is the slack front end. I can’t think of another rigid bike that’s this slack.

There’s 3 enduro bikes that are good at pump tracks but they go to a different school. You probably don’t know them.

@JeffKendallWeed looked like a blast. I've rode some rigid ss but it was older geo and xc width tires. It is nice knowing if you are going to have a 70 hta its not going to get steeper on my xc rigid. This is way more capable. The mk builds are the ones I was eyeing. For the exact reason you were talking about lowkey trail capable. Ride a commute to work and hit some trails before heading home. I've done that on a handful of bikes hardtail usually seems best.
