And a 150mm fork when the bike is designed for 160. @hifiandmtb what length cranks are you running? Look forward to first ride report!

140mm - wash your mouth out!
170mm, BB height is only 329mm (measured) which is as low as the lowest BB on the market (that I could find - Stumpjumper EVO, 328mm). Reports say it's manageable but looooow.
Just had this fork already, what's nice is that I can get a 160mm shaft plus move to the new Debonair design for added awesome.
Anyway, will rip my local trails when the rain stops - hopefully without doing this:

I hate it when dirt build up on the top of my stem.

Played cassette roulette.
After finding the clicking noise on the stumpy was cassette related I needed another 34t cassette.
So stole the one off the STP to replace it which in turn meant I had to steal the 32t one off the spare wheelset.
I now have to convert the gf's anthem to 1x11 so will then steal her 36t one to replace the 34t one on the stumpy to give me a little extra range for the 1x9.

That'd be the blue jump descent at Wild Mersey in Latrobe Tas, pretty easy to just do laps of and definitely fun - lucky to have it so close to home.
Was planning on doing a PYR once the Pike Ults show up, might get around to taking some decent pictures too.

Interested to see how the ally, holds up. Make them out of stainless and you'd be selling many of them on the interwebz no worries. Looks neat BTW, doesn't look bodge at all. Is the next step replacing the plastic BB guard with polished metal?

Not really for chain suck. More for if I bend a chainring tooth or get some crud jammed in there, the frame won’t get abused.
And had to ditch the Giant bottle cage for a Specialized one, Giant didn’t quite work:
Full sized bottle, OneUp pump tool plus piggyback shock. It can be done, other manufacturers...
