Hi everyone!
Seeking opinions on this frame as a potential machine for the Alps with a 140mm fork. Would it take that type of terrain, i.e much more than trail, but below DH?

its an ace bike,im own one,does it have the brain on the rear? with evrything opened up its a brilliant bike,i gave it a real thrashing in the 7stanes centres,its not really an all mountain bike but i guess it depends on rider Maybe?

real simple really you dial it either firm or soft for how you want it to react,on its sofest setting its real plush,only firm its almost like riding a hardtail. the only gripe is setting up the sag,its not like a normal shock because the brain doesnt kick in until its being ridden over bumps. i weigh 13st and have 170psi in the shock if it helps,its just trial and error. its a very agile frame which has a really comfatable riding position, not to racey feeling.
