if you dont have any major needs of the bike any bike will work for you if it fits and you like it , a suspension fork will just take away from your road efficiency and add off road efficiency , but im sure you could just ride the surfaces you want without any major difficulty , i obsess of efficiency so i have to have the perfect bike wheel and tire combos for each ride i do , even its all pavement i will switch my cassettes and rings so it matches the elevation
