Hello,
I'm thinking about upgrading the 120 stumpy frame to a140 trail bike. I'd build it up as a light weight trail bike.

It's not going to happen soon but I can dream.

The sort list so far is:
Ibis mojo SL
Yeti 575
Orange 5 - probably to heavy and aggressive for what I'd use it or.

A s works stumpy would on the list but it's just too expensive!

Any thoughts?

I'd love to include a Pace on the sort list but their bikes seem to miss the Mark on all the reviews I've seen and I've no heard good things about their customer service.

    Check out the new mojo sl-r very light, pretty much as stiff as a mojo HD and it's bang up to date feature wise, tapered Anglesey compatible head tube, pressfit bb, 142x12 mm rear axle, kinda wish they'd released it before I bought my HD140 :lol:

    Mount vision is worth checking out too.It's only 120mm travel, but rides like everyone else's 140mm.
