Hey guys,
Looking for some advice. I'm a xc mtb'er who has always raced/ridden a hardtail for over 10 years,had my current bike since 07 and really fancy a change. it has 100mm/110 front forks, stans crest wheels on hope hubs, hope brakes etc etc.
But i'm getting itchy feet and really fancy trying a full suss, looking around 4" travel and needs to be able to climb.
plan is to build up from what kit i already have, any suggestions from frames or any one have a frame for sale.
cheaper the better, just had a baby.

I've been racing an Anthem 29er with Stan's Arch wheels. I'm very heavy and they just keep taking whatever I throw at them. Easy to go tubeless and much lighter than the stock wheels which I now use for crazy wet weather rides and general tomfoolery!0

I'd say epic would be more suitable.0
