Cruising to the top to bomb the drops, couple of local (South East) enduros a year. Few uplift days, off to Winterberg for a long weekend in June. Same as many middle aged wannabes really. The Sultan has been the best bike I’ve owned, in many ways I’d be stupid to change it. However I could do with more reach, would like shorter chainstays for more pop and a slightly lower bb. Don’t like the front end too low as it does my back in.
Would like frame only as I’m happy with the rest of the parts I have (Pikes, LB carbon/Hope wheels, 1×10 XT, E4 brakes etc)
Have also seen 2014 stumpjumper evo comp frames on sale cheap but the numbers possibly aren’t different enough to change – 10mm more travel (horst link not DW), 10mm lower BB, 12mm shorter stays and 25mm more reach
So dunno really. In no rush. Waiting to see the numbers on the YT Jeffsy
