hi all ive been into bikes for a very long time but when i was 13 i had my very first trials bike a saracen xile, it was my pride and joy then i got mugged for it and i fell out of love with bikes after it.

Basically i got back into it 2 months ago i bought myself a nice saracen mantra 3 sx hardtail, after riding it hard at some local places its starting to show how cheap it is things are braking and loosening really easily so ive come to a point of wanted better quality and full suspension.

the bike im looking at is a

Specialized stump jumper elite 09

has anyone got and advice on these bikes i can get it for £1500 from a specialized dealer and £1500 is my top line budget.

Thanks in advance for replies
