I test rode a status 160 and I absolutely hated it. But you running the shorter fork probably makes it less slack so it probably doesn’t turn like a boat. and I don’t know how tall you are but I’m 6’1 and an s3 is probably a better size than the s4 that I tried. I personally felt that the s4 I rode was too big and too slack. Plus, the suspension wasn’t set up to my liking. It was way too soft. I bet if I had an s3 and some time to play around with the setup and dial it in, I would probably enjoy it.

@scottpetrie16078 сағат бұрын
You planning on putting a bigger fork on or sticking with the 140? I’m convinced the frames between the two models are identical, aside from the shock link and shorter shock. I used to own a 160, bought the 140 shock link to change it up, but never did. Yours if you wanna pay for shipping from Colorado Also, if you ever feel like going full 29er on this thing (based on what I’ve seen on the channel, guessing not 😂), while retaining geo and having appropriate mud clearance, you can direct swap a rear chainstay from an older Speshy Enduro

I broke the seatstay on my polygon t7 right before a biking vacation, freaked out about time, and bought a super on sale status 140 frame, thinking I'd end up selling it. Polygon was great, the siskiu is getting repaired, and now I'm stuck with both, because the status is so darn playful and fun to flick around, I can't get rid of either of them. The internal cable routing was an absolute nightmare though.

The Status is a bit like an enduro/mullet/pre downhill bike until you shorten the fork. I think you turned it into a trail mtb. Or counteracted the mulletness. A wonky stump jumper chomp! And that is probably why it worked.

Short chainstays dude. I came from BMX and the main element of geo that makes an MTB playful is a short rear end. Coupled with the longish front center this thing is a weapon at speed and in the steeps as well. But the short rear center is the sliver bullet for us BMX/DJ lovers.
