superb example.

havnt looked at the running gear in detail but the price is about right.

I'd consider one, take the big ring off, put a bash guard on, some sort of seat dropper and off you go. Good for all up to stuff that will relly hurt if you fall off... probably more if you have more ability than me.

there was some concerns over the spesh own shocks... though I've not heard of any real issues.

yes all the reviews seem to say get shot of the shocks as there crap and replace them

do you know anything about the sizing on this it says medium, but there sizing chart seems to suggest that the medium is only a bit bigger than the small

I was really tempted to buy this until I saw that.
