You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
As per title. I may be looking to build up a bike over the winter.
I already have a 29er hardtail which is likely to be sold to fund the new build.
So, Ive looked at the transition bandit 29er with 120mm of travel, what else is out there with no less than 120mm travel and full sus (frame only)?
I've got a Turner Sultan frame for sale size large - may fit your bill - 125mm rear travel - will take 120-140 fork. Interested?
Got to say, I'd stick with the 29er HT with winter coming and look at the FS early next year..
Anyways, off the top of my head:
Intense Spider
Niner WFO or RIP
Specialized Enduro
Norco Shinobi
Kona Satori
Whyte T-129
Vitus Escarpe
Niner WFO or RIP
IIRC the JET9 is now 120mm.
[i]Edit - no, I'm a numpty. It's 100mm rear, 100-120mm fork[/i]
Bikescene had a fair few stumpjumper 29er frames (130mm travel)for £800 or so and some stumpjumper evo 29er carbons.
I've got one ready to build up - off the bike due to injury at the moment so can't tell you how it is!
thanks everyone so far....food for thought 🙂

I went for a Bandit29 last month and have been really impressed. A really fun bike, probably one of my faves and I've had a few...
