I think you will find that Most DT athletes run the 471 instead of the 511. Most are also still running aluminum bars as well

I would have thought Brayton would be running the Hope V4 brakes but he's on the E4? Also, considering he is sponsored by Ohlins, why is he not riding their DH fork?

I think it mostly comes down to butt space for smaller riders to move around without getting buzzed by using the 27.5

Interesting how the chainstay attaches on the outside of the mainframe on the non-drive side but on the inside on the drive side. Obviously for space purposes around the chainring but it sets my OCD Off ?
