just rode it 8 miles, took the shock pump and rebound adj. rod with me. hit the same single track with whoops and ruts 20+ times and ive got it dialed. with the ETA locked it rides realllly nice while climbing and when you really want to rip on the flat sections. ended up cranking down the TAS and (20mm shorter than the fork in the full extended position) and running the psi a bit lower than the manual suggests. butter for 299.00 im tellin ya. thanks for the compliments fellas!

my stem is a 120x8deg rise? not too sher but you my not wanna use the fork at 120 mm cause the frames not built for that much leverage.just an observashun,but the frame was designed for nothing longer than 100mm,I think....good luck tho.

not only would it have been too much leverage, but the bike rode squirrly nuts with it all out, so i cranked the TAS down as i mentioned and lowered the psi. thanks!
