Privateer 161 Frame

Geometry is on point with numbers close to a DH rig with a headtube angle at 64° and reach per height pretty advanced. At 1.83m (6") on P3 size (490mm reach) it felt stable and composed when railing corners, but the bike is mostly rewarding at high speeds.
Suspension is great overall, just the beginning of the stroke can feel a bit harsh but can be altered with a coil shock. It felt composed on rooty sections like it was his best terrain.
The long chainstays and steep seattube (75.49° on P3) make it a good climber despite its weight, shocks with the climb switch at the trunnion head make it even easier but the kinematic can make you forget about the need for locking your shock. The dropper insertion is also very generous and can easily accommodate a 200mm post on P3.

The build is straightforward with most routing outside (except the gear housing in the rear end) but requires attention to protect housing around sharp corners or bolt heads, especially around the bottom shock mount.
The OEM chainstay protection feels inferior and the absent seatstay pad is a no-go, adding your homemade protection (thick rubber tape or velcro tape) is very much required.
Depending on the shock spec, it may be in slight contact during compression with the bottle, needing to push the bottle-cage at its highest position, adding some tape on the shock to prevent rubbing, or even flip/remove some levers hanging too much outside. Tapered bottles are strongly recommended.

Otherwise, the frame feels thick and strong with decent bearing sizes all around, it feels rigid but absorbs vibrations with ease.
It's a comfortable and race-ready machine with a price low enough to let you focus on other components like suspensions, wheels, and brakes to increase overall performance.
