as it is, when i ride a conventional fork bike, i go home with sore wrists from the frequent forward weight transfer that you just don't get with the telelever.
Gettin' old Brad or maybe "all" that weight transfers trying to tell you a diets in your future?

They tried anti-dive on forks in the "80's, sorta turned the front end into a strut, not good. Fortunately newer designs have bunches more adjustability for dampening so you can tune that dive so it isn't a total nosedive & electronic dampening control would hopefully prevent slamming the front down fully also. I always found the dive enhanced feel & grip into corners.
