I feel you might be asking for too much considering your budget. Nick got in one "Right the fork makes over 50% of how the bike feels. get something that will compliment the frame not hold it back"

Its not just the forks thought, how about the rest of the spec. What bits is your mate giving you, what bits are you robbing from your own bike?

I reckon for œ300 your best bet is the all mountain,I think the all mountain 3 is about œ250. The sacrifice you will have to make would be the climbs as you can't drop the all mountains as far as I am aware.

It will have my rear pro II wheel my brakes with 203mm rotors [:D] I know what you mean the all mountains look mint. But they don't have the 20mm thru axel wihich woudl mean they would be proper flexy if i did any DH on them [:(] The kit i am borrowing is good stuff not anything crap. Anyone else recon what should i do?

Dunk save your money and get the Pikes, getting manitous is a big risk IMO and it sounds like you can't afford to taske the risk

coil will be better for harder riding, and you never know the medium spring may be soft enough for you, they're always softer than specified anyway!

they might not have been fully bedded in though... When you/If get the Pikes, they will (if like a lot of rockshox) be extremely stiff, on any spring, so i would recommend sticking with the stock spring for et least a month...
