All ok, until the geometry leads you into terrain that gets pretty exhausting to hold on, unless very skilled!!
Local ex World Cup DH rider Sam Dale has a Tallboy, which for him is a fabulous bike 140/120 travel, but for most without his trail vision and skills soon get into a battle with the ground, and either crash or have to back off the speed considerably. A bit more travel ( with similar geometry) for those of us less skilled makes a huge difference!!
