Morning guys,

Thinking about a bike upgrade from my 2007 Heckler.

Coming from the Heckler what would you pick 100mm, or LT 130mm?

Pricing so far,

Aluminium Frame seems the way to go, 1.5lbs heavier than carbon but £800 cheaper - £1799

FOX FLOAT CTD ADJUST KASHIMA + £220.00 worth it?
Hope Stainless BB upgrade (+£45)worth it?

New wheels £350

Which of these forks, currently love my Pike Coil 426, so something equally bang for buck?

Rock Shox Sektor Gold RL SA 29" - 140mm
Rock Shox Pike RCT3 SA 29" - 140mm
Fox 34 Float CTD Adjust FIT 29" - 140mm

Hoping to keep...

Formula Oro Bianco 180 brakes
Sram PG990 cassette 11-34
XT cranks with shimano chainrings 44 32 22
Sram x-9 rear der
Shimano XT front der
X.9 shifters
Truvativ XR riser and AM bars
30.9 Thomson Seatpost

Cheers!
