I think Elijah is very professional

Low anti rise might feel good on flat trails. But I would recommend riding some steeps during testing. Obviously you can adapt to almost anything. But from my experience, which is a little too extensive, I get a lot of forward weight shift when it’s super steep due to the shock extension under hard braking. But I can respect how plush low anti rise feel through rough flat stuff

great bike and video. (keep going)
10:30 my expirince with 455 Chainstays(at 485 reach) is that you can get the rear around tight bends very easy if you shift youre weight forward and let the rear lose traction. then you can slide very easy and efficient around tight corners. It just need some adjustment to the riding style
