    how much do you want to spend, do you want full sus or a hardtail, any preference on brand?

    hoping for a full sus perhaps a spec pitch or stumpy and i do need stroner legs but that comes with practise getting better each time out just dont like ups.

    Pitch is too heavy for the ups, weighs in approx 32 lbs.

    For the terrain your riding li go for a Commencal 5.5 or a Orange 5 pro
    the five weighs in at 28lbs or the Orange ST4
    And both bikes have a large upgrade list too.

    Best test as many bikes has you can
