Nah, can't stand lefties. Would be new, if any others exist!

Is it really that hard to find a new 26" wheeled carbon bike? Crazy times.

Not sure there's much left on the market that fits your bill!

Personally I'd go secondhand anyway though, as the prices have just gone through the floor so not really risking much cash!

If you're a medium, I have this to sell and can wholeheartedly vouch for it...

Why 120mm or less. At 140mm there is a bit more choice...Banshee, Ibis to name a couple.

Not denying that, have ridden a Cannondale fs with them and it was amazing BUT it's not right, like bent tubes. Just wrong. Sorry. ๐Ÿ™‚

Agree with you there Dez!

I'm overbiked on 140mm with an Ibis. Can't do very much these days so need all the help I can get. ๐Ÿ™‚

You could get away with 120 forks on a Pronghorn XC-SW Carbon. I have.

They're a bit marmite though, and not cheap...

The ASR5c is brilliant. I'm surprised Yeti dropped it

Shame, but I would recommend the 2012 model if you can get one in your size.

I think it was pretty much the perfect 120mm, 26in trail bike.
