I'm pretty excited waiting for mine to turn up. I was very lucky to get hold of one in small in Australia. I think the only concerning part about the whole package is what happens to the internal cable routing in a crash when the bars spin 180.
How tall are you on the large frame? I’m 183/6ft, mostly riding bike parks and enduro type stuff, Merida say mid or long but the reach on the mid is even longer than my last large slash! 🤷🏻♂️
Yes, I properly slammed and cased it on some stuff during other testing sessions and the flex stay set up didn’t do anything weird. It’ll take a coil too if you want

There should be enough slack to cope with a full ‘wreck wrap’
Can’t wait take one for a demo in New Zealand. The 140 mullet will probably be my next trail/allrounder bike
Should have the 140 for test next month
how did you like it? I bought one here in NZ, the bike is absolutely fantastic, rides so darn good
Wanted a bit more travel 🧳 (trying to keep up with my kids lol) I will probably get the 160fr

How's the headset? Is it creaking?
Nice looking bike, but the headset cable routing is always a deal breaker.
Sounds a really interesting bike ,can I ask in your opinion can the back end of bike cope with hard core bike park jumps.
