I got my 161 today, very impressed with the build quality, chainstay protector seems to have been put on with pritt stick though. Will go out tomorrow and test her. Does anyone have any recomandations for fork and shock setting? I am 200lbs in gear?

Looking good! I read somewhere that the Raaw chainstay protector works on the 161 but I can't confirm. LMK if you find anything.

I am running the Raaw chain stay protector, needs some work to make it fit 100% but it works just fine:

Well yeah but it works despite the fact it is not very sticky.

I also will buy the Madonna protector but only for the look's because it is still working since October.
I am confident because I have the AXS that I don't need to cut anything from that chainstay protection.

Like with the stock protectors, you can just use some decent double sided tale and you’re good to go!

Cool. I need to visit sometime. Last time I was in Greece was 2004. Loved it then. Did not have a bike though.

Lmk if you decide to come over, there are many trails, ranging from steep rocky technical stuff to more mellow cross country trails, I ride everything on my 161.. Razz
