Hi fellow, xbikers. This question may be better suited to r/MTB but I think the xbiking community may have more experience playing with 90s bike geometry. This is my 94 Kona Lava Dome that I have updated for better or worse with modern components that I spent entirely too much on. I already upgraded the fork to a NOS Marzocchi bomber but am really not digging the over-the-bar feeling when hitting jumps and descending rough terrain (I understand this bike really isn't designed for that). Any recommendations for the following routes:
a. Get an angled headset and an air fork with more travel to slacken the head tube angle.
b. Convert this to rigid and buy a modern slacked-out hardtail ($$$)
c. Just deal with it as I have another modern MTB and probably shouldn't spend more

It's getting really tedious seeing multiple posts removed in every thread because Automod has detected the poster doesn't have enough karma or is a new user. This is a low traffic sub for discussing a mobile game, seems pretty low risk for spam accounts. The overzealous automodding is just bringing the sub down imo.
Look in the new update thread for example - five or six posts removed. I actually want to read what other players think that's why i'm here.
