In modern MTB suspension news; I pulled my Smashpot out today to re-order the shim stack. I read a few things online from people saying the stock stack is a bit much for sub 200lbs riders. Actually super easy (if incredibly messy) job, so I moved all but one shim over. Hoping this means the HBO gives me a more usable adjustment range now, as even one or two clicks stopped me getting full travel. With a higher spring rate for steep stuff, and HBO off, I couldn't use the last 2cm of travel as hard as I tried
