I was thinking Tomac Supermatic 120 but what else is light, climbs well and descends like a right little belter?
Thought about fuel ex but the 9.9 frame is £3250!!??!
Santa cruz blur , got a 120mm fork on mine
Yeti asr 5 in ally it carbon flavour. Do I mean asr? Anyway, the one that's good for 120 or 140 and has been on long term test. Look on the right of homepage.
Nicolai Helius CC, loving mine in current form with 120mm reba maxle
Duno if its best but I love my Ghost Amr...
Epic Evo?
Surely it isn't just the frame that will determine how well it climbs and descends...you might have an amazingly controlled rear-end but if the front can't be controlled it will affect the ride as well.
So what forks you going for? Is there a bike that is 'matched' to them?
Cube Sting HPC.
It's the best 120mm lightweight (25.4lb build) FS I've ridden, you can get the frame only but I don't know it's weight
Always gonna be a subjective one this, but I'll go for an Enduro or Stumpy. Owned variants of both (S-Works and Carbon) for a while and they're far more competent that I am.
Turner DW Flux - 120mm on mine & its lovely.
Yeti ASR5 alloy or carbon, Santa Cruz Superlight, Santa Cruz Blur XC.
Another vote for the Flux here 🙂
mk1 Giant Trance, rocks with 120mm, got my frame for 190 on flea bay!
Another DW flux vote here. 120mm sids on mine, but seen revelations on a friend's heavier build.
Wot, no Anthem?
I love this forum, 14 posts with 14 suggestions. The fork is a 2012 Fox 150FIT RLC shortened to 120. I was thinking about the flux but in the back of my mind I am keen to try carbon and hoped to pick up a sale season bargain.
Alter the fork to 130mm & get a Yeti ASR-5 Carbon although it works with 120mm too, but I've read somewhere 130mm is the sweat spot.
Read the reviews.
Damn it should have kept my 2004 Marin attack trail with 130 up front.
Flux for the win...
That liteville looks lovely....
anyone gone from 100 - 120mm on a flux?
hows it affect things?
Another vote for the flux. Got pikes on my 4 bar version, run them at 130mm. A riot of a bike.
Nicolai Helius CC seconded - loving mine. Not as light as the Anthem it replaced but a lot more fun and versatile. The only downside is I tend to be travelling much faster downhill when I crash now so it hurts more.
or the Yeti ASR5
SC Blur xc Carbon - rapid, rapid bike and suprisingly capable downhill, not xc twitchy in the slightest, completely confidence inspiring, a complete hoot!
Nicolai Helius CC thirded great at 120 or drop the travel at the rear to take the sting out and it takes on a hardtail feel. Or get some longer travel adjustable forks and go up to 140 front. As said very versatile love mine.
