Both, if you can afford to... Swapping rigid to suspension is quick and makes a huge difference to the ride.

Is the Scandal your only bike? Rigid is great but I wouldn't have it as my only choice.

it is for main duties, though have a single speed, for work and an early 1985 dawes atb for retro duties.

really not sure if suspension is what i need fro the trails we do, though my wrists are shagged every ride! i just know where i ma going with rigid forks!
