Got to decide this evening whether to try full suspension and this looks like a good opertunnity. (I've done some test rides but nothing beats owning it and playing and setting up for you). Its the right size and being tall that doesn't happen that often
The only real weakness looks like the fork to me, not rubbish but here the damping gets better one model up......

I can see no deals on new FS bikes to touch this in my size
Use would be XC. Woburn where to honest I'm ok on a hard tail and trail centres where I desire more comfort
If it's a 17.5" you are saving 200 for a year old bike that is out of warranty as [url= http://www.jejamescycles.co.uk/trek-fuel-ex-item130117.html ]JEJames [/url]have them for £999 otherwise check if the bike is registered with Trek and discuss the warranty with the seller
Yere I saw the Je James deal but no a 17.5 is miles out
I'm going for it
There are very few 21.5's about
This years equivalant is 1600. Same fork and kit better linkage. Its the best option I have so I'm going for it
