That makes no sense. It's flexible, so stiffening it won't make it less flexible?

If you don't want one, don't buy one. I guess you're lucky that you can't feel the flex in the forks a majority of the time. I feel it every time I steer the bike at anything over commuting pace, so I'm planning to fix that. Pretty much everything about the forks on these bikes is terrible compared to what is easily possible. I don't know why there is so much resistance to wanting to make the bike better...I'm not insulting your mother here.

I mean, if folks are satisfied with it then that's great...satisfaction is a good thing for the wallet. Having owned bikes with better performing suspension, the shortcomings are glaring to me, and make riding the bike less enjoyable. So, if I can fix those things, I will enjoy riding the bike more. Of others don't feel that way, then power to them. Just because some people either can't tell the difference or don't care doesn't mean that there isn't real improvement possible.

 

The old saying goes like this; The proof is in the pudding.

I can't wait for your feedback. Maybe I will want one.
