Whats the max fork length you guys would run on an SX slope?

The 100mm travel version? I think anywhere from 100-140max would be fine. I've seen dudes running 160mm on those and it looks so raked out.

Depends what your riding, smoothed dirt jumps id go for 100mm. If you riding tech stuff then maybe go higher

Ok do you think 120 would be pushing it?

Not at all, the bb is extremely low with a 100mm so 120mm is probably safer, I just like how mine feels!

Probably not the best idea man. I'd go like 120mm max, anything more will probably compromise the geometry.
