Anything else i should have considered or looked at first? I keep ending up back on the website and keep deciding that its a hell of a lot of bike for the money...

Yes, cancel the YT and get a [url= http://www.yt-industries.com/shop/index.php?page=product&info=212 ]YT!!![/url] For the extra £450ish you get that a dropper post, better wheels and better running gear. And it looks bloomin great in black and red

The ltd is nice but I wouldn't want a DT rear shocks as they are utter rubbish unless they now actually come with some damping. If you got the ltd you'd need to budget for a new shock too.

My SSD190 was just an air spring as the damping was almost non-existent.

Credit card balance transfer jiggery pokery, nat west/rbs platinum card at 22 months interest free on balance transfers so spent the cash on one card (0 balanve) an transferred to the new card for a 3% fee.

Was hoping for the Halifax 0 fee 2.2% card but they seem to have worked out it was a rather good offer 😀
