I may be mistaken but it looks to me like there may be an off menu item for those who wanted the MT to have all the adjustments of the LT. If you put a 160 fork on the LT and shortened the shock stroke to 60 or 62.5 instead of 65, you could get approximately the the same geo as the MT with the rear travel reduced to right around 150, you could even go 57.5 stroke and get really close to 140 rear travel.

There was a post here that a Forbidden bike (non-motorized) was spotted with the vertical shock / HP layout that their ebikes have, getting rid of the tunnel. I could see that. I'm over shock tunnels personally, make setting rebound a PITA and limit dropper insertion.

6’4” x 240lbs and swear by NOBL TR41’s. I’ve had 4 sets and never needed to break out the spoke wrench once. I’ve also got a set of their newest ebike/big boi Ethos HD wheels. They are way more compliant. So far so good on those too. I’ve had the most success with CK hubs.

The line of allowable motor assist has hereby been moved to include a very small motor. -Pious Pedal Puritans The ebike equivalent of shaking the bed. "Just the tip, just for a second, just to see how it feels."

Black beauty wins out overall, but the entire Hope Tech brake system is gorgeous.

Mallet DH fan for years until snapping two spindles on two separate occasions on pretty mild hucks. Seat straight to nuts both times. No bueno. Saw that the Hope pedals had great reviews so gave them a whirl and am pretty stoked so far. They feel like mallets once clipped in but are way easier to get clipped in to...

Dang! Standard geo is 505cs 677s you went 525cs 714s that is wild. Also 6’4 and currently on a V2 dreadnought. The crap geo that the industry pushes on tall folks is criminal.
