Thinking about whacking a set of RC2's on a Lizard... some tell me that it'll be too 'chopperish' but SC do say that the frame can go up to 160mm... so, does anyone have any experience of this combo? Any pics?

cheers ๐Ÿ˜€

I loved this build, and not chopperish in the slightest. Its being reincarnated with Wotans, just need wheels to finish it off.

yeah i've just chucked my zocchi 55's on my chameleon, i havent had much chance to use it configured with them yet but it seems ok, like the other chap says, it doesnt feel chopperish or overly slack, eats the bumps up though, a boss hardcore hardtail 8)

I'm set up with some 140 revs and i feel thats to chopperish, would like to drop 10-20mm, but i do struggle with fork set up. Still nothing to say don't try it you might well like it. i will defiantly put a 9 block on the back when i have the money.
