@Posteriech – I think it may actually be an 80mm stem you have. The 3 Large T130’s that I have seen in the flesh (other than mine, which had a migrated 70mm stem from the medium), have a longer stem than mine. Mine is definitely 70mm, so I guess Whyte published the Large as having a 70mm when in fact it is an 80mm.

At your height/inseam (same as me), how do you find it for saddle clearance when descending/jumping/cornering low?

Your right it is a 80mm!!! saddle clearance is fine arse cheeks are able to touch the rear tyre not a jumper though. Found a problem though the front mech outer touches the rear swing arm has worn the paint so had to zip tie to the side of the guide.
Full of lurgy so missing tonights night ride but should be ok for a ride tomorrow on my local stuff.

Tyres changed to Bonty XR4 2.35 front 2.20 rear and set up tubeless

How come 60mm feels wrong- too twitchy or reach too short?
