Gotcha! thanks! Also is the low speed adjuster on the inner ring or the outer ring on top of the shock? I should probably know that by now ha.

I was initially worried about that as well but the shaft is a good bit thicker than the ones you see on coil shocks and is one solid piece, not hollow like ones you find a DHX2 (where they have the rebound circuit go through). I asked Intend directly and they said they have never seen any shafts break and that I could even run it on my Stumpjumper Evo if I wanted to. It feels totally solid and I've stopped worrying about it since.

Pretty damn good. The lockout on this shock is a true lockout so it feels like riding a hardtail uphill. Haven't had any issues with traction either. I did originally have a coil on this though and even with some movement the bike felt very efficient uphill. Ferrum made a killer bike for sure.

I see you've got the holy trinity on there with Intend suspension front/rear and brakes, sweet kit!! I just threw and Intend fork and shock on my rig as well. How have you been getting along with your shock? Seems I had to go a bit over the recommended pressure and add volume spacers.

Finally got it and have been riding a few days on it. Its super plush but bottoming out a lot. I spoke with Cornelius and he says to not go any higher in PSI for my case, so I just added both spacers (bands) to the shock. Still bottoms out a lot but it always feels super smooth somehow. Did you add any of the volume spacers to your shock? Ha sorry for all the questions. I just have mine on a single pivot as well so yours is the closest set up I've found.

Do it man! I loved my Stumpjumper Evo but damn I love this thing more. I just saw that he was this frame on sale for $800 bucks on the site (though I think it has no warranty) regardless that’s a killer deal for a US made frame!

It’s a 200x57 size shock but I should note that it’s actually tuned for a 2017 Warden Knolly. I just added a heavier weight spring and upped the compression a bit and it’s been workin great! Ferrum has stopped making the LVN 160 with the 200x57 shock size and has since updated it to the 210x55 shock size. They do have some frames with the old shock size available at a killer clearance price though! He’s making new links so you can convert it to the 210x55 size if you want later down the road though. i actually just got...

Sick build, how’s that Fast Fenix shock treating you? Was thinking between that and an EXT.

How have you liked the Hover Gamechanger shock? Swapping my coil for one next week.

I got a Stumpy EVO LTD and it came as a mullet. The OEM mullet link makes it blow through the travel a little more quickly. I've heard that the MRP link is the better way to go. I now just ride mine as full 29er. I do a lot of climbing so its been nice.. but also just had a nice set of 29er wheels that I wanted to use. Long story short, its kinda what you would expect. Mullet is more fun downhill and a little easier to rip into turns with. 29er feels a little more stable...

Yo I was just watching a video on the V2 since im buying some of the 5DEV freeride cranks. This thing just keeps getting better and better! That floating brake mount looks nuts too.

Internal shifter and dropper lines but external brake lines is pure genius. Wish that was more commonplace
