Have you tried out different tires? They make such a HUGE difference to handling! In our usually dry conditions I LOVE the Continental Vertical Pro on the front and a Continental Explorer Pro on the back. The traction is phenomenal and they are still pretty light. I can get lots of lean in the corners at speed without sliding out; and I can spin out on a root or rock three times and then catch and keep going. I haven't been able to do that on any other tire.

Sorry for the thread drift. Please return to your scheduled discussion.
