    intriguing on the weight front as my Mk1 with DHX air and Lyrik Air weighs 34lbs on my pikey fishing scale-, be nice if they overread!

    Looks v classy in green, and not a common colour (unlike my transit van white)…

    At risk of thread hijack, what pressures and settings are Nomad owners with DHX airs running (and for what body weight)? I will finally be able to start riding mine soon (bought it the week I broke my knee 3 months ago 🙁 and from just pootling around the block the settings SC recommend seem too low, so looking for pointers and experiences.

    Posted a pic of my old enduro in exactly the same green, but removed it, as it doesn't post well being a Pinkbike pic

    *edit*

    Found another one

    Just a bit off topic but is the shock on the nomad 216×63, just that I'm gonna put a fox van r coil on my heckler and would be good to know that it would go on a nomad? Did you get the monarch with the nomad or pay extra fir the upgrade? And how much did you get for your heckler? Cheers James

    32lb for a Nomad with Coil shocks front and rear… That's impressive! My Giant Reign X with Air shocks front and rear isn't that light, and I've got some pretty light stuff on it, albeit with Saint Cranks (probably add 1/2 lb over the Hones on your bike) and an adjustable seatpost.
