After a few years of just going out once in a while, i'm back in to mountain biking, and after a few visits to places like CwmCarn, FoD, etc i'm pretty much sure i need more travel as the years haven't been kind!

So, at present i have a 2011 Spesh Epic Expert, it's pretty much standard apart from upgraded brakes (Hope X2s), cranks/BB (RF Turbines) and wheels (Industry 9s on Stan rims), i've had this one since around 2012 and it's always done well, but the last few outings it does seem to bottom out quite a bit, and my dodgy knees and hips are starting to feel that!

I do understand that 26" is pretty much dead, and that the shocks will more than likely need some sort of service, as i've not had them done in a few years as well.
