"Here we're just gonna touch base on fitting with full suspension mountain bikes. Same deal applies as to a you know, heart tail in that you're going to want a lot of stand over clearance, you're going to want a decent amount of room in the cockpit to accommodate your upper body, saddle height to bar height issues are going to be a matter of comfort and control. One thing I'd like to touch on is that the bike is going to behave a little differently in that your weight position is going to change depending on whether the rear end is actuated so if you're under compression here, all of a sudden there's going to be more weight of you on the back wheel, the front wheel is going to not have the weight on it that it did before and so you've gotta kinda make those adjustments when you're making your choices for fit in terms of sag, because literally the sag is going to change your position relative to the bike. And, on some designs will change your position to the peddles. However, most designs are not changing that now, but it is a consideration depending on the bike that you're looking at."
