Anyone riding a HJ with a Pike on it? Thinking of a HJ frame and have a pike to go on it, will prob wind it down to 120mm

130mm is max. for Handjob.
Chap on here bent his when using Pikes so be warned.
FWIW i run Fox Talas 95-130 on mine.

Cove recommend an axle to crown of 510mm on a HJ, Pike come up at 518mm so wind them down 8mm and still covered
i've ridden my HJ with Pikes at 140mm in the Lakes and at trail centres without it folding, but i have a small frame so may be stronger than larger frames as all the front tubes meet as one at the head tube (down / top / head)
once your sagged you'll be under 510mm anyway
