If the industry had stayed with 26" wheels, there would be no need for dual crown "enduro" forks, 223mm brake rotors, 4-piston brakes on light-duty trail bikes, etc, but with 29" wheels there's so much more leverage and inertia. A 29" 170mm fork is over an inch taller than a 26" 170 fork, typically with less bushing overlap. They twist, they bend, they flex, and they creak. Most of all, they feel sketchy in really rough/steep/fast terrain. Haven't ridden the new crop of 38mm single crown forks, but at 190 pounds and 6'3" I can substantially support the argument that...

So, about the spokes. You could have 1 or 2 rolled up with multitool or other things and if you manage to break a spoke you could just lace it and ride home? How can these spokes be better to a aluminium rim where the tension is what keeps it aligned? Carbon hops just keep their straightness even without some spokes...

That bolt between the shock and linkage is the right place for a problem. A slightly bend will increase friction on the seals of the shock, and on harder cases, break something, a bolt on the upper or lower placement of the shock. Wouldn't swing my leg over this.
