• While the Jekyll is undoubtably a cool bike, I'm not sure I'd want to have a proprietary pull-shock without a shop warranty to back it up...

    Mid-travel 29er seems to be where it's at for versatility, fun, and not making everything you ride this side of a downhill track a bit dull. That said, I think you're going to struggle to come under budget for a full suspension frameset. The best deals are to be had complete.

    Might be worth taking a punt on this: https://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/2398153/

    Is it proprietary fit? Could it be replaced with something else if it ever failed?

    Cheers for those links

    No, although Fox will service them.

    I wouldn't bother - it looked cool but by all accounts the pull shock Jekylls and Triggers weren't that awesome.

    I'd look for a habit, they are fun, versatile bikes.
