Does the Bottom Bracket height alter in the different travel modes? If so i assume that the lockout mode will give a steeper head angle than in middle mode, which in turn is steeper than full bounce?
Or does the head angle always remain the same?
In the lock mode you wont engage the usual 30% sag so the bottom bracket will be higher and the headtube steeper.
you got it pretty right tho.
Lock is steepest
middle is slacker and because you sink further into the travel on open mode the headtube is slackest there.

And therefore in lockout you feel quite high up and a bit perched. I tend to use middle setting most of the time with it open going down hill
Cheers folks, the lockout would be for roadie bits only so being perched high up isnt a problem.

Which makes it ideal for fireroad/paved climbing and road sections
fwiw, I ride in TC out back almost all of the time, and 100mm on the 36's up front. Even with full on techy descents, i'll run TC and 130mm front
If i use full travel front and rear, I feel a bit detached from the bike with the resulting slack head angle although its nice to know its there when you 'really' need it.
I do love the bike though.
