to much it will throw the handeling way out and will void all warranty on the frame

the 120 change is sub £50 all well worth it.

Would ruin a good bike IMHO. Pretty easy DIY job to increase Reba's to 120.
Or would you be better off with a Trance...?

My Anthem's a 26 & from what I've read 120mm is thought as the longest you should extend travel.Could you reduce the travel in the 140's?

Thanks .i will give the 120 a go.our rides have got more rocky hence the need for a bit more travel.might have to change bike later on but do like the anthem

worth a go iv yet to find the limits of the handling under fast singletrack i find it makes you line pick a bit better insted of just smashing rock gaurdens
