Does £700 get me a better....

........................Full suspension frame than the Orange ST4?

Over time i have built up my hardtail and am now condsidering moving onto a FS set up. My riding ismostly trail centre Red routes and thats something I really enjoy. I am not delicate by a long way and am considerably bigger boned than most I also do a lot of road work to get the fitness required for the off road stuff but i imagine continuing with the hardtail for that type of riding

Why the ST4 ...i aspire to own an Orange :roll: but thats an emotional thing as opposed to a well informed choice.The ST4 seems to be the bike best suited to my riding needs and at £700 seems to be a bit of a bargain for a brand new 2010 frame and shock.

Unless of course i am missing something?

Going for an orange is a good choice, trust me your subconcious did the research and made you lust well.

Not familiar with the ST4 though, you might want something a bit tougher if you weigh a bit.
The more you weigh, the more power you have. The more power you have the heavier frame you can get a way with.

I commute on a niner WFo with Dorado =-)
That means I am also big boned!
