Agree, It seems to me the CG on very high side. Need some aftermarket shock towers to lower it or like what you said shorter shocks and good morning to you Brake Weight

Semi-droop shocks may be better ...

Aight. Then there’s plenty of decent options then for 90mm/3.5” out there. Good.

Purely IMHO, the portals and dig would still allow this to be extremely capable with a set of smaller O.D. tires, which will bring the COG down...

(BTW - I prefer that red one in the video's style paint and graphics, simple and no racey/stripey mess)

+1 on the red color scheme and no stripes. It looks much better than the stock photos.

Those will only drop it 5mm. Which may be just right. Ran in droop would be likely work great. Ima rob my 90mm Yeti shocks from my Wraith.

I’ve got several tires that are shorter than those Hyrax it’s tested with. But I think a larger tire, 2.2 wheels even, would clear the body.

Yes. A bright blue would suit me just fine.

Yup. My 5th rig since April. 🤣

Already looking at either a GOM or a BRX01 next.

If the Capra scratches the itch for a tube style rig, I’ll probably go for the BRX01.

I’m gonna need a another job in my retirement.🤣
