 You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Demotivated and distracted today at work so I need something to help me through the afternoon. Thinking of buying a new bike seems like a pleasant way to while away the time before I can ride home for the day.
So... I would like a light (say 25lb) 120mm trail bike. Currently I can only think of a Trek Fuel. Any other suggestions? There must be loads.
yeti asr5c (will happily run with 120mm fork)
Dave
Cannodale make one, I tihnk its called an rz 120
Scott Spark, the new 2012 looks even cooler
Yeti ASR5, Santa Cruz Blur TR, Intense Spider 2,
But I ride a Cube Sting, great fun.
Whyte E120
Whyte E120
Not any more... 146 or T120
Canyon Nerve XC for sheer VfM
I thought Scott Sparks are 100mm not 120 ?
Yes! A Yeti. Mmm. Or a Santa Cruz. Why are these almost all American bikes?
I think the Whyte and the Cannondale are on the lardy side, no?
Yeti ASRc jumped to my mind, yeah.
Scott sparks were 110mm in 2011 but for 2012 are going up to 120mm. They looks awesome and the 2011 spark 20 i rode for a few weeks was great fun. It climbed like an absolute wippet but it was in the singletrack that it really felt at home, it was like a 4x bike.
I did run it with a 65mm stem and 730mm bars as per all my bikes.
I am ordering a 2012 as soon as they become availiable

+1 to the 2012 Spark 26-er 120mm, looks ace.
SC Superlight as another suggestion, this gets asked quite a lot lately, have a search for the other threads
For the last few years the Spark has come with 120mm forks but as you say with 110mm out the back,
Do look at a Cube Sting though!
I'd love the Genesis Lat Ti....got the Lat 10, which I guess is kind of like dreaming of Kylie and waking up with Dani.....
Specialized Camber Pro with a few tweeks?

Lapierre Flow
..also the Pivot Mach 4.2 (see the front page reviews) or the soon to be released Mach M4x
A Spark would be nice but that Liteville looks wunderbar! Not heard of them before. Are they generally a good thing?
have a search on here, they are supposed to be very good and very adaptable, some-one posted a link one to a German 'picture/spec' thread with around 100 pages...
