2 years ago i bought a saracen recoil xc frame off the bay for 70 quid, its been built up with fox forks, manitou radium rl shock and sram x-9 drivetrain, now ive searched high and low on t`internet to find out any history of the said bike but all i can find is a few forum entries off mtbr comparing it to a santa cruz blur (dont laugh) now i love the bike to bits as its rides awesome, what i would really like to know is....does anyone know anything at all about the recoil xc? to jog memories heres a pic
im sure you can see why it was compared to the blur, personally i think it looks like an intense spider, but thats just my opinion.

It has a 'virtual pivot point(s)' by virtue of the linkages. But it was these linkages that caused grief for many, with reports of flex and puivots wearing quick.
Just keep an eye on them.0
