Hi there,

I have been using my Specialized '05 FSR Pro 120 for almost a year now and very proud of it. It seems to be a great cross country/trail bike but can also handle so light downhill.

I am however looking at increasing the rear travel and was wondering if anyone has tried out the BETD specialized upgrade linkage:

( http://www.betd.co.uk/items.asp?Categor ... d+Upgrades )

This upgrade increases the rear travel on the mountain bike from 120mm to 150mm. I am wondering if anyone has tried this and could offer any opinions on the upgrade? I am a little worried about upsetting the geometry of the bike. I am currently running 130mm suspension forks on the front, Rockshox revelations Dual Airs.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.[/url]
