Actually just bringing to my friends so we can head to the trails after classes but technically am commuting on the way. It’s great for all the potholes on the way and is less inefficient than you would think.
I rode an older full sus xc bike around LA as a commuter for quite a while. I had a lot easier of a time getting through the crumbling public infrastructure than I did on a heavier, road specific bike but yeah got some funny looks from other commuter cyclists who clearly didn’t know about the magic of suspension. 200mm of travel might be excessive tho

Underbiking and overbiking at the same time.
