I have mostly ridden road bikes but I had fully rigid steel, then aluminum mtb's, then 63mm fork hardtail, then 80mm front and rear, then 100mm front and rear and my new bike has 160mm front and 150 rear. There is a huge difference in the new bikes on rough terrain.
Now there are 170mm travel bikes in the 30 pound range. Incredible!
