  • This is a bargain right?

  • dibs -if you split- on those wheels if they're wiiiiide

    but yeah @umop3pisdn just buy it

  • Very much so. Cost more than three times that to put together and has done ~300 miles. But I'm looking for something with a little more travel. If I do split it'll be to keep the wheels and replace the frame. The wheels are great. I was nervous about going carbon but they're super light and have been fantastically resilient.

  • Bump for a bargain

  • Did you buy it new as frame only then?

  • No, but wheels were an upgrade.

  • So bought new from Orange? If so great price on all that.

    Why not sell the fork / frame / shock and build a longer travel 29er around the wheels and running gear?

  • Bought new from Orange direct.

    That’s one option. Any inspiration on a new frame?

  • Well that’s a great deal here then.

    What about the new Stanton FS frame? Looks super. 140mm so not too bonkers.

    Spendy tho.

    Hightower would be another nice but pricey option.

    Cotic Rocket Max can be had for £999 with a shock in large at the mo.

  • Or the new Pivot?

  • The Starling Murmur is a very nice thing.

  • I believe the Pivot is Super Boost, which would mean a new hub for the rear wheel. Otherwise that'd be a nice option.

  • I know it's against the rules to post links, but this is on eBay now. Let me know if you're interested and I can PM you a link.
