Very nice. What length is that monarch? Might swap out my fox for one.

Monarch rt3 is 190x50 M/M tune... Reading up on it I think it will need a custom tune eventually to be a bit more supple in the initial part of its travel...

150mm front 130mm rear. Kind of what I consider the perfect hardcore trail bike for the UK. Should be under 30lb too...

Pikes slacken head angle out to 67deg and super short 165mm X0 dh cranks for maximum clearance...
