What are your front end combos. I run pikes, 100 x 10 stem sat right on the head set and high rise bars. Its turns in shite and runs wide. This is probably due to the stem which I have swapped for a 90 x 0 ( because I have one )but I am also considering a lower rise wider bar. I use the bike as a winter hack as well as a thrash around the woods bike so I don't want to put a silly short stem on and spoil the climbing capabilities. What are your set ups and how does it react in the fast turns.

Invert your stem? ton medium is amazing- I dont think the increased sizes suits the frame as you go larger.

Ton, there great. This is my second. Bloody stiff and unforgiving on the hard pack but super fun most of the time. They sort of make you mess about and pick silly lines. My mate is 6 ft 6" and rides an XL. he loves his too.
