lol well it will go up by a long way. they seem to still have a large fan base. but if you have got to buy a shock id personally go for a 5th element. brilliant shock plus i had mine for well over a year and it didnt need a service once. still worked perfectly when i sold it.

This frame needs a total strip down and respray. I'm also looking at a 4-way coil for £60 buy it now. if all goes to plan i should get both for under £100  Grin

well if your lucky. altho unless your in ireland you will be paying for a airmail postage rate. which is gonna be a few quid. but if you get it all and get the respray for £200 you would have done very well. good luck to ya buddy i'll be wathcing what happens with it anyway.

lol oranges are hard to pedal compared to other bikes. But f'ing good bikes. One of the lightest about and they ride amazingly in my opinion although people say you either love em or you hate em. some people just dont get along with them

I'd give the Manitou a miss, Try getting a Fox Vanilla RC, I had one on my 222, It worked amazing.
