Hi all; wondering what people have done as far as a fork/shock setup on their tallboy 5's. Been toying with Ohlins but not quite sure. Currently have a stock Fox float performance/ Fox 34 performance fork.

I'm running a Pike Ultimate at 140mm, with a Super Deluxe in the back.

I've been faffing around trying to figure out what I like best, and think this works pretty well for the sort of riding I do on the bike. My local riding is pretty steep and can be pretty rough so decided to go for something a bit more capable than the stock set up.

I was very happy on my TB 4 when I moved from a 130mm 34 to a 140mm 36. I tried a Cascade link for the back, but didn't like it, so that stayed at the stock 120mm.

Are you running a 2024+ super deluxe? I feel my setup has been pretty hard to dial in. Feels like im blowing through travel.
