No it helps to prevent bottoming out the shock, if you have the sag set correctly and you find that you bottom out the shock too easily you can install a larger volume spacer and that will provide a greater ramp up on compression.
If you do get a DPS, make sure you get a volume spacer kit. I find the dps blows through its travel slightly more and had to run a lot larger volume spacer than I anticipated.
Pretty much. Also tbh I don’t notice the weight so much when riding Vs my 5010cc which is 12kgs, in fact asides from lifting my M20 over the occasional gate it feels pretty much like riding any of my analog bikes (apart for the DH) and that is also the wife’s opinion and she rides it more than...

saddle: WTB Volt (have the same on all my bikes apart from the DH bike)

Haha, each to their own. My two Nomad V4s have lyriks and my 5010 and DH bike have fox 36 and 40s respectively. Tbh I prefer the lyriks, they are both running the 2021 air spring , one is the Rc2 model and the other is the rct3 .
Hey, not sure what you’d gain going upto the 38, I’d be sticking with either the lyrik or the 36s on that bike. Lyrik ultimates are quite cheap at the moment, approx £600/650 and the 36s about £850/900 make sure you shop around when you have decided.

Fwiw, I’m 5’6 and I’m on the Med, most of my other bikes are also Med apart from my Nomad V4 which is large. I do have quite a large inseam for my height (32”)
Just for info, am running a Monarch Plus RC3 @ 210x60 on my M20 rise that I had left over from and old 2016 Trek Slash, fits perfectly and have no issues with the back wheel buzzing either the frame or seat (am on a med) just looking at what other options there are at 210x60 and it seems not a...
