What's your reach/stack? I'm running 410/580mm on the medium Scott Spark and it feels like my hardtail. Suspension's set up to be poppy and it's great for trails with the 50mm stem and 785mm bar. I hated the bike with a 720mm bar though
414/592. Way under the recommended size for my height but IDGAF. A 50mm stem should split the difference between this and the Spitfire perfectly if I find it's too short. The fork is actually at the ideal height for the frame right now. It was shit to begin with and the seals are blown so it's probably next to go, and I might bump up to 160mm to raise the BB a bit.
It's so good. The suspension is way more sensitive than the Banshee, the back end is stiffer, and it jumps/manuals so nicely. Exactly what I was hoping for.
I have a Specialized Command Post missing a remote and a few small parts. If I find myself really fiending for uppy-downy seating I'll complete that and throw it on.
