Message: Ohh... Still going Strong and but a veiw niggles.

The bike is looking used now, the cables are rubbing of paint (to be expected)and the stone chips are getting more numorous(also to be expected), over all it's looking a bit grubby dispite being cleaned after every ride. For the useage it's getting it's standing up Ok but not great.

Component wise, rear shock is good no problems, forks are good but I will need slightly softer springs (<£50) to get the full 130mm travel. SRAM shifters, mechs etc are still 100%.

Brakes have been changed for Hope Mono M4 front(180mm) and back(160mm). The front Hayes so1e wasn't powerfull enough on the down hills and the master cylinder on the rear started leaking.

I've not regreted buying this bike at all, and with the right upgrades it'll only improve. As for the paint, Battle scares!
