Nice build! What size frame and what length One Up dropper? I’m starting a large Smuggler build and will be using the One Up dropper. Cheers!?

I’m running an XL frame. I have the 170mm dropper set at full length. Enjoy the build!

Thanks! Parts lare coming together. One more question... how does the Ribbon ride overall on the bike and how is the 41mm offset? ?

Very plush off the top with maybe less mid-stroke support than Rockshox Pike or Fox 34 (haven’t run the 36). I find that using the low-speed compression lever to adjust to each trail is helpful. I don’t mess with the ramp control as much, but it does change the ramp up a lot. I ran the 44 offset on the Fox 34, then the 46 on the Ribbon (I moved the 46 to the Vanquish). Moving to the 41 from the 46 was a big change, but I got used to it quickly. It’s more stable than the 46, but it turns in a low speeds more quickly now than before (which was a suprise). Overall I think the 41 is more what I’m looking for now that I’m used to it.
