Am heading over to florida in October and was seriously thinking of buying this rig
http://orangecycleorlando.com/product/1 ... 4713-1.htm
I,m currently riding a Cube ams pro and want to upgrade to xc bike to do local races next year would this rig be a sensible buy?
Also can I upgrade my front sus to 120 travel 4 bit messing round over small jumps bit downhill tracks nothing serious

    It isn't for DH tracks at all. You'll just break things. You could put 120mm forks on it but why? May as well buy a Camber..

    Would be good for the xc stuff but not thebdh and jumps. Spesh made an evo version with 120mm forks but I think they tweaked the frame geometry on them as well.
    I love horses, best of all the animals. I love horses, they're my friends.

    Bet you a good chunk the definition of downhill doesn't mean downhill as you and I know it.
