If I was really good, Santa might be kind ... always fancied a short travel light full sus bike. Budget is limited, so poss an older Yeti ASR? Any views on them for XC/ singletrack riding. And I'm just about 6', lightish - guessing a med would suit as they seem to come up large-ish?

And how comapre vs a SC Superlight? Any other frames to consider?

Cheers

I've got a 2005 ASR and its fantstic on singletrack and XC, i'm about 5'10/5'11 ish and ride a medium and it fits great. Never tried any other similar FS frames so can't comment on alternatives

I'm 6ft and ride a medium. Though I must admit I don't ride it much anymore since getting a bigger bike. I might even be tempted to part with it. Don't get me wrong though, it's a fantastic bike.

Where are you based Aus? You're welcome to try mine if you're near to Leeds.

Aus,

Medium was perfect for me. I'm quite a lanky six foot, if you are "long" in the torso you might favour a large.

I'd drop you a mail but there's no address in your profile. Drop me a line (address in my profile).

Cheers
Ben
