Additional Info
The rear end smooths shit out remarkably well, through certain sections where I’d get hung up a lot it just keeps on moving. You don’t feel the rear end at all - the front wheel will hit something and you’ll never feel it hit the rear. Makes a 180mm Lyrik Debonair feel crap. Actually think a 200mm fork would help create a more balanced feel but not necessarily essential.
Chain growth is dramatic, takes some getting used to, picking up the front can feel unpredictable at first as the rear wheel disappears behind you making it tricky to get weight over the rear axle.
It’s as heavy as a dh bike with a single crown fork (because thats whagnit is) So not light. But its main bulk is centered around the BB so probably better suited to all mountain than many DH rigs. Can still be quite poppy for a portly thing.
