Hi,
It's officially my brothers frame though I've always looked after it for him. It's a bit of a tank so if you are looking for an xc whippet then it isn't for you! Absolutely bomb proof, great handling bike, particularly in the 6inch mode with the lower bb. Pretty active, nice and plush vanilla rc shock. It's 'battle scarred' but in no way damaged beyond the cosmetics. Climbs surprisingly well for a lump of a bike too!
He is 6ft and has used it as his only bike for everything from all day peaks rides to mini dh. It's a bit short for him in the top tube to do a gentle pootle but winch up, razz down type rides are spot on. I wouldn't recommend it if you are much over 6ft but anything 5''8" to 6'1" ish should be fine.
It's in Nottingham if you want to see it in the flesh
Cheers

I'm 6ft - how long is the TT?
I'm looking for a full sus bike which can take a beating but also wanted something which will go up hill too - this sounds like it may be an option?
What forks did he run with it?And do you have any more detailed pics? I'm too far to visit unfortunately.
Thanks again

I'll take some more pics for you tomorrow, anything in particular you want shots of? I'll also measure tt for you while im at it. He ran it with 160mm lyriks after a brief spell on some 180mm marzocchis that were a bit notchy. It can take anything from150mm up to a dual crown dh fork.
Is your email in your profile?
