quotes his fork must be set up soooooo stiff, it looks like its barely moved when the shock is fully compressed...

yup

but be aware you can only run 1 x 9 on the rampant (or 1 x 8 / 1 x 10)

in other words a single ring chain device (ISCG 05) at the front as the Rampant will not take a front derailleur for dual or triple ring front shifting

WC works great with Fox DHX 5 air (unlike many bikes) because the suspension is progressive which suits the DHX Air just fine!

Pike would be a good choice, I recently built one for a customer who had a Specialized Pitch and we raided his parts including the Pike fork for his WC build

I think we used a FSA Orbit 1.5 reducer headset?

cheers

what kind of riding do you want to do?

if you like dirt jump, skatepark, pump track then get a Rampant

if you like heavier hitting freeride and downhill runs / stunts then get the Wildcard

the wildcard is a tougher frame and can take a bigger fork and larger tires, so better for the rough stuff

the Rampant is a super quick, snappy handling short travel ideal for the expert rider that wants a precise, super nimble bike for dirt jumps, tricks and going stupid fast on 4X tracks and pump tracks!

any more q's...

fire them over dude!

cheers
