mainly just need wheels and fork, I’ve got most of the other bits.

Rocky Mountain Slayer is his stock answer to any what bike thread

I am at least half kidding when i write Slayer... Although i do absolutely LOVE my Slayer.. but i don't in truth think bad bikes are out there any more, not in this day and age and in a highish budget.. There's just variations on bikes...
I could have said Specialized Enduro, Privateer 161, Megatower, Slash, they're all bloody brilliant... each and every one.

It almost comes down to which colour and which deal you can get that makes you happiest.

I got the Slayer at nearly 50% of RRP, which made me massively happy and still does.... but i don't know if it's the answer for everyone.

Frame looks nice. we have some used

FOX FLOAT Performance 36, Grip Damper, 44 OS, Kabolt 110, 170mm from Abigales Enduro when she took her dads 38s for her NZ trip

X-Fusion Manic, infinite adjustable, two-bolt head, bottom mount cable routing, remote SRL LE lever, 34.9mm, 150mm and 170 mm of travel

Would need to look but probably got some new Roval wheels

Loads of other stuff from our 3 Enduros

If anyones interested in how this ended, I had a number of drinks Saturday night and woke up Sunday morning having won a specialized enduro frame on eBay

Congrats, nice looking frame that.

I always enjoy a bit of late night ebaying, wake up to an email on Sunday morning to find I've won something. I suppose better than the postie turning up with something and it being a complete surprise 😉

Thanks for the offer Tracey but I already have a dropper for it.

I’m undecided on what fork to get yet but I think it deserves performance elite or factory level forks rather than just the performance.

OK. No problems. The forks are the grip 2 versions. Only difference is the black instead of gold stanchions

Maybe you could pm me what you’re looking for price wise for the forks please Tracey. I didn’t really understand the fox hierarchy but having looked they sound good 👌
