These words, they do not mean what I think you think they mean.
Pedants rejoice.
200/210mm is simply OK so far. Also a longer travel means a higher bottom bracket which is properly awkward.

XC, Trail, Enduro, DH all running 29" front wheels... seems like they should be trying larger but they don't bother!

I mean I guess, even longer wheelbases are a good thing… unless you need to turn.
I feel Like 200mm is a good compromise point for the overall balance of the bike in all directions. I have never thought to myself: my dh bike would be better if it had more travel. I have noticed that it would be better with a better pilot, but I digress…
Maybe there is a clever regressive damper setup that could counter this? I remember the video but don't recall if that is addressed.
still, no one has tried 10" front and back bike otherwise it would be all over the internets. more travel would be useful for gnarly parts and take some away on the flowy jumpy parts but this could be taken care of by low speed compression done right. the bike would be more of a handful to throw around but smash better. i'd experiment with 10" all around because the v10 in 8,5" setting isn't "too much bike" to throw around and i'm only 5'8".
Also, the cross-section profile of the post would be more aerodynamic turned 180 degrees
At 5'10" you're not short at all, and slightly over north American average I believe. So what gives?
And @uponcripplecreek he's not at all small for the bike being reviewed. It's right within the size range, and at 475 for reach really isn't that long. And his height is not 'medium' but taller than average.
Facts people, facts.
calling Manitoba an eastern province or Minnessota being called eastern/atlantic state.
Regardless, for me proprietary=hard no.
Also Banshee legend was at 64 in 2010. Mondraker and Orange too.

Bargain
All the images in this article was shot at ISO 3200, so they should be equaly noisy unless being pushed a lot in post.
This doesn't make any sense. High-pivot does not automatically mean that anti-rise always the same. That's part of reason why some HPs designs are using split-pivots or inverted-horst: to tweak and overall reduce the anti-rise vs a plain single-high-pivot.
WAT?! Emotional breakdown on the way for Matt Beer. LOL!
What sort of compression and rebound settings are you hovering around on the DH38 m.1?
PB your reviews are a joke. I can't believe you're trying to justify this kind of bullshit on a bike.
Cock for cash much?
