As above, I have a 2007 Heckler the last of the old shape before the rear swingarm went rounded, the new ones are rated up to 160mm travel but what is the older frame able to safely take?

Basically I want to fit some Fox 36's to it but fear it may be too much, does anyone on here ride a 2007 Heckler or older and use 36's? how does it ride uphill and downhill also whats it like at trail centre riding and should I stick to my original choice of buying a Pike coil?

Cheers ๐Ÿ™

Aaaaaagh! I knew that was coming!
I can't afford the talas at the moment so will have to settle for the Pike coils as they are a good compromise ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks cynic-al ๐Ÿ™‚
