Hi, I have the same frame size large 29.

Have you notice any inclination to nose dive on jumps?

I also have a Norco Sight 2014 27.5 and that jumps perfectly.

I have a general idea on how to set suspension, but nothing I have tried worked so far. 
The Carbonda is a monster on downhills but hell I got some close calls on that bike, mostly on lip jumps, tables, etc. Stuff that on my other bike is piece of cake.

I had the same “problem” with the bike nose diving when jumping, but I have been playing around with different rebound and compression settings on the shock and settled on a super slow rebound setting and soft compression. Still nose diving a bit but I think the frame design/kinematics has to do with it.

The bike still rips hard, no issues with frame cracks or anything.

Yes, I have ridden enduro and a bit of bike park with this bike. It can handle everything pretty good honestly. At the moment, I am running full 29er set up and a Burgtec offset bushing to slacken the head angle a bit. I was running the original mounts when I was riding a mullet setup. It worked fine.

Thanks! the bike is sick! It's been holding up surprisingly good! No issues so far (knock on wood).

interesting design choice. Putting the trunnion bearing on the shock eye that doesn't rotate much. Water bottle clearance for smaller sizes?

oh yeah, forgot about them. Guess they are going for a certain look.

In their case incorporating the remote cable for the twinlock was probably a factor...

More H2O bottle space with piggyback out of way. Lower center of mass. Nice frame--where's the review

Love the custom color decals for your Stan's wheels! Where did you get those?
