My 5'1" Son is on a size small Knolly Fugitive with a 180mm dropper. Slammed, the tire is nowhere near the rear wheel at full travel. Yes these are new/different designs but it's not about the amount of drop, it's about where the slammed seat is, which could be same for a 125mm dropper as a 240mm dropper. Also, at full travel, that rear triangle doesn't come nearly as close to the seat tube as your PS job shows.
And I'd bet 1 million dollars that Noel has ensured that a slammed seat does not get in the way of the rear tire... that would be a humongous oversight.
