Recently installed the Joplin 4r, 2.4 Mountain Kings and Selle Italia C2 Gel.

Ridden a couple times now with the Joplin and I'm stoked on it. Instills a bit more confidence. There is a bit of play at the nose, maybe a couple mils, but you can't feel it while riding. Older Joplins can be converted to the 4" version as well.
The C2 Gel is super comfy and the Mountain Kings have tons of grip. They measure up almost identical to the 2.2 Nevegals.

You should like it His Hiney, those bars measure 31 inches wide! Oh yeah!
He rocked it down ATT a while back, so she's a good rig! Needs more front squishyness though! :lol:
