I was waiting for someone to post up like that :-/ Whether or not it's necessary, he's asking a question, not asking you to ask why.It's really not necessary. But the mr big st 10 and some tanks. IIRC nicolai do a frame with that amount of travel- or atleast they have.

Title: Re: frames with 10" + travel Post by: Chris. on August 20, 2008, 02:40:22 AM As said before; V10 :) Also a personal favorite.
Does anyone know what the most travel there is on a bike ? I mean like 12 inch or something :P Title: Re: frames with 10" + travel Post by: Farrant on August 20, 2008, 06:33:41 AM Azonic Gravity, CRC may still have them dirt cheap. BB is a bit high but its a huck bike with that much travel.
Title: Re: frames with 10" + travel Post by: Squirrelking on August 20, 2008, 07:57:07 AM Does anyone know where I can get one of these "Scoot" bikes I keep hearing so much about :P
Longest travel I've ever heard of is Karpiel Apocalypse. (I wouldn't say the Brooklyn Rubber Duck counted as it was a one-off and used moto shocks). I've never seen a Nicolai cheap, on the same vein you could suggest a Brooklyn TMX or Racelink. Coyote DH3 10"?? Only if you fit a stupid long shock, rumour is that logic applies to all bikes... :P And finally, your cheapest bet is probably the Scott High Octane or Mr Big ST10.
