Hi guys,

i have an 2011 orange crush at the moment. if i bourght a pivot mach 5.7C frame how much could i transfer? or should i not **** about and just buy a whole one?

orange spec :

Tubeset 6061-T6 Custom Butted OS Aluminium Tube
Rear Shock N/A
Swing Arm QR Axle
Forks Fox 32 Float RL 140mm TS
F Mech Shimano SLX
R Mech Shimano XT Shadow 10 sp
Shifters Shimano SLX R Fire +
Chainset Shimano SLX (3 x 10sp)
Cassette SRAM PG1050-10
Brakes Avid Elixir 5 185/160
Hubs Shimano Deore 525 Disc
Rims Mavic XM119
Spokes DT Swiss Competition
Tyres Continental Mountain King 2.2
Headset Cane Creek ZST25 tapered
Stem Race Face Ride XC
S Post Race Face Ride XC
Saddle SDG Bel Air
H Bars Race Face Ride XC
Pedals Flat
B Bracket Shimano SM51 Hollow Tech 2

Pivot frame :

• dw-link® suspension with position sensitive anti-squat provides stable handling and the increased cornering benefits of a lower bottom bracket with more travel - all with better pedaling efficiency and a plusher feel.

• New Fox RP23 Kashima shock with custom tuned rebound and Propedal settings for increased rider tunability and incredible small bump sensitivity.

• 142mm rear spacing with 12mm through axle and 160mm post mount dropouts for maximum frame stiffness.

• Under top tube cable guide includes routing for dropper seat post.

• Rubberized leather chainstay, inner seat stay, and down tube protectors for a quiet ride and higher impact resistance.

• Direct mount front derailleur design accommodates Shimano and SRAM systems. The direct mount design, eases set up, and provides a more rigid mount for the most efficient front shifting possible.

• 145mm (5.7”) of rear travel with 140mm or 150mm fork compatibility (150mm standard).

• Press Fit 92mm wide bb shell allows for wider pivots and better bearing support for increased frame strength and stiffness, while maintaining better control over chain-lin

Well, it's obviously going to come down to budget.

If it's all in good condition, I'd move it all over, then upgrade bits when you have money.

First things for me would be the wheels and brakes.
Unless you think the 140mm forks are going to compromise something.
