[#6775199]

Hi so iv decided to sell all my bikes and go full sus. Iv wanted to push my riding to the next level in terms of up hill and dowen. I live in todmorden (where the mag is based) and the terrain is UP or DOWEN most of it rocky. For those not familiar with the area it's a bit like riding in the lake distreict .

Anyhoo I'm looking for a full sus that has bolt through, maxie axel at both ends decent suspention and frame not bothered about the drive chain or brakes as easer ly changed. I'm looking for equal up and down ability but I'm willing to go a bit heavyer for dowen than lighter for the ups. So far I have been looking at the 2015 nukeproof mega tr (the very posable to expensive limit of my spending) And on one codeine posable canyon. My limit is £1500 if I can get part of it on ride to work that's a huge plus
Any thorts hugely welcome .
P.s please forgive my spelling i am dyslexic 🙂

The Nukeproof sounds perfect but take a look at the Giant Trance, Canyon Nerve, Bird Aeris and Rose Granite Chief as well.

You do realise the Codeine is a 29er?

As an only bike I would defo want a 29" but as you don't go Trance SX.

Those Nukeproof's are creak machines.

I've just got the new jimbo, enjoying it so far. The spec is excellent for the price, frame build quality is good with a 10yr warranty (might be 5 years now). What's not like?!
