I have an orange 5 (yes, another 5 rider :roll: ) which i have found great on most terrain but i would like to add a little more stability on downhill sections. I ride trail centres mainly and want something that inspires a bit more confidence on jumps and fast sections.
As the frame is a 2005, i think it has quite steep angles compared to the newer 5's and has a float 130 fork so do you think i would be best changing my fork for something like a pike or revelation???
or would i be best changing my wheels for something sturdier as i was advised by my LBS (wheels are wtb speed disc rims on hope xc hubs)??
Thanks in advance

Wheels are fine - what about your tyres?0

Thanks.
I have just changed the original tyres for a high roller up front and ardent on the rear (both maxxpro i think).
Do you think a change of fork is a good idea?0
