On my DK Xenia 26", I noticed that manualing felt way better when I switched the super short 35mm stock DK stem for a long 70mm Race Face stem.
No matter how big your wheels or long your chainstay, I think the idea is to have a good front end vs. back end ratio.
The worst setup for manualing is a short front end and long back end. And that's how some dj mtb's seem to be set up.
Otherwise, the Xenia has been awesome. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a high quality entry complete.
