Which one should I buy if I were to get a full sus frame. Both are 2nd hand and the same price. I enjoy all mountain i.e the ups and the downs. I like the Commencal frame as it looks better but I haven't a clue on spec.

The Ellsworth Dare has a Fox Vanilla Coil I think..

and the Commencal, I think is a mini downhill again not sure has a swinger 3 air shock

    The Ellsworth is a rarer, boutique frame while the Commencal's Swinger shock is more tuneable to your ride preferences, weight, etc.

    If that helps!

    So if I were riding all mountain the Commencal would be a better frame then?

    Yes, the Ellsworth although looking very sexy would probably suit more DH/FR than AM

    So do you think that the Commencal frame is worth £600. And do they pedal well?
