Check out the 45N D4's for a summertime compliment to your JJ's.

I love Hodag's for dirt, but the D4's are probably better for the uses you've described.

I always lusted after a Softride beam bike, but never spent substantial time on one to know if it was really what I needed.

I've previously ridden the Thudbuster, Moxey, Tamer, White Brothers, and a few other sus posts.

Also spent a *lot* of time on long...
