Sherpa with a midweight 120 fork, dropper and wider bars would be a good shout. Might feel the weight a bit compared to something in composite with a racing fork but it would a lot of fun.

If I do end up doing dirt ultras I might get myself a rigid fork. But I'd probably want to be competitive before bothering with that and I'm pretty sure I won't be competitive. It's like, I didn't buy the Shiv until I came second in a Nat Champs, then it was like... moneygun!
Speaking of forks, if I get the frame, which fork do I go for? I should take this to the other thread.
hippy
Yeah, Stanton has been sat in its Shopping Cart for a while now. Thought I'd give this XC thing a go before committing to anything. To be fair, the XC bike is probably more bike for my skill but I think I'm set on steel anyway so I probably should just pull the trigger on the Stanton. But which colour... they don't do black :S
