how about going total pimp and ordering a load of anodised minis? they can do them in any colours that they already have (like the hubs and stuff) but you need to order a few hundred i think.

bike souns good too.

Hmmm, wouldn't anodized minis look a bit crap?

gold? blue? i think enduros would look better but the minis are very pimp

Why not throw in Thomsom stem and pin? More exclusive than the Easton, cheaper, and you can get them from Freeborn along with the Truth...

And what about Shiver SCs? I've been thinking about these recently as a beefier replacement to the ProClass 2s once I have my front Bulb....

Mr Monkey - try and ride a few. I've ridden a Sub 5 and like it - the SL felt a little short, but I'm a lanky bugger as you know. I love my Proclasses (plush, *no* flex even with a Hope tit. QR), and if you're 12 stone I would have thought they'd be fine. I'm 11 and have been jumping mine with no apparent problems. The steerer tube is thicker now too. And they're British. Otherwise I'd do the Zokes or Fox. Not a great Rock Shox fan.

Sorry to hear it's all got a little nasty. Stay single! Far less hassle, especially when you have access to channel 5 and late night cable.

have you looked at more expensive marins or maybe a whyte prst1.aah also look at some kore finishing kit, pimpy
