1. The BB crank area, I would like to see if you could run a 34T Oval without getting too close to the frame.
I run a 32t oval and it's pretty close to the frame.
Don't think you can run a 34t oval, but it depends on your crank/chainring.



2. A pic of underneath the BB to see how the cables are sitting.
There is a small "door" you can remove/unscrew


3. The outlet for a rear shock remote lockout cable.
There is a hole in front of the front shock mount where you can route the cable, what do you want to see there?


4. The read shock area... maybe we can fit a 200mm rear shock there?
No


thanks!

Is that BSA or pressfit BB? Can't see or tell.
I wouldn't try higher than 32t oval then

Absolute black gives the diameter of their rings at the bottom in general.
ie: https://absoluteblack.cc/sram-oval.html

In the example above, between a 32 and 34 you have 8mm, so 4mm nearer the chainstay.
I run a 38 round on my 041 frame, and it is just about to touch the chainstay, without any problem of wear such as mud could do.
