I am running a Banshee Phantom V2 that I over-shocked to 120mm rear travel. I also run 27.5x2.6 wheels/tires. This allowed me to run a Fox 36 (27.5) set at 170mm travel. I absolutely love it! It is the next best thing to a hardtail.
I run the rear dropouts in the tall/steep setting and my BB height is around 335mm, and head angle seems to be about 68 which is same as stock.
I'm hoping more companies get on the short travel/big fork bandwagon.
