show me your big bikes 150 plus travel!!

Scruff – When you say it’s better over bumps now, do you mean it recovers from repeated fast hits better? Can you feel it tracking the ground better?

I have same shock as you on my Froggy and am considering options for modding it.

nice upgrade on the shox

the front is in mm, the rear is in inches

Chappa, only had it done last week so only ridden it once but on trails I know, I would say yes is just a bit better allround. Give your money to LOCO !

and before you ask yes 150mm Talas on the front 😉

Afraid not. I’ve got one of those too.

AndyA that looks REALLY nice and clean 😀 I had just about talked myself out of getting a big bike to save on money (and make me not rely on suspension) but this threads making me think about changing my mind again 😆

Go for it tom. I’d went back to riding a hardtail after riding full sus bikes for years, but got the urge to go back to full sus again. Still got the hardtail, but it hasn’t got a look in since I got the spicy 6 months ago.

That’s kinda what I’m worried about, I can’t really justify keeping 2 mtbs as I only ever ride off road at weekends. As I hope to move out frm home soon I’m trying to clear out all the crap I don’t need so versatility is key 😛 My dilemma is I can’t decide whether to just buy a full sus complete (can get a norco six 1 for £750) or spend the money I’d spend on a full sus on hardtail upgrades (mine’s getting very tatty) and build up a really nice LT HT!

I am the ultimate procrastinator and over-thinker 😆

Another Orange of mine…. I think this might be the oldest in this thread?

Patriot ’00 (now with 36s, stinger guide, in-line post and 8″ rotors both ends)

Flamejob wins this thread just for hanging his bikes up in his living room. striling effort that man – best art work i have ever seen!

Gee thanks guys. My hardtail is the real art and that is in the Bedroom 😉 Oh and, the bikes are in the dining room!

As far as action goes… I am normally taking the photos, but I found one…

don’t have this anymore, sold it a few years back for not much dosh to someone up there in Scotland, it was my old Trek Y-DH that i raced for years, only really suited the Alpine tracks as it was huge. Just found some pics of it recently

Nice one flamejob…just that both your house and bikes looked far too clean. Do you have OCD? 😛

Oh Mr ferrit —– that is an awesome looking piece of overengineering right there 🙂

Just for chainless riding is it?

DH bikes have really come on looks-wise, haven’t they?
