Agreed in the tapered head tube, only for more fork choices. Other than that, the only thing that needs “fixing” on the Pitch would be changing the rear QR for something bolt through.
Have run mine in light xc build and got it to about 27lbs, and also in heavy DH mode (didn’t bother weighing that one), it’s done the Alps, trail centres , day rides, Uplifts, local woods – the whole 9yds and I love it.
