How do I set sag and rebound on a 170 mm travel full suspension MTB?

Start at 30 % sag for your weight, then back rebound off until the bike feels lively but not bouncy. Kona includes a sag-o-ring and baseline chart on the shock for quick trail-side tuning.

Is the Process X CR the best long travel bike under 5000 dollars?

Absolutely. Between the carbon front triangle, proven suspension kinematics, and value-minded build kit, it delivers race-level performance without boutique pricing.

Can I swap to a 27.5" rear wheel on this carbon mountain bike?

Yes. The flip-chip geometry adjust lets you run a 27.5" rear for a full mullet setup, dropping the BB slightly for even more playful cornering.
