Suche ein 110-130 mm bike

groovastic · 06.11.2008, 17:20

Hallo!

Since my German is bad, I'll write in English... I hope it's OK.

I am looking for a new bike with 110-130 mm of travel. I ride a Stumpjumper FSR, but I would like to find a bike that would make a better climber.
In fact I am looking for a bike that would be the best for steep technical climbs, fast singletracks and a good sprinter. My Stumpy is very good in singletracks, but not the best technical climber and not a good sprinter.

Thanks for your help!

P.S. you can write in German. I hope I'll understand

What about the new Epic? Did you already have a look at this?

Hi,

maybe the Spark will be a good choise too. A good frame and functional parts.

Greetings

Thanks guys!

Yes, I did look take a look at exactly those 2 bikes, but the "problem" is that they are 100 mm travel bikes.
And I said 110-130 mm because I wouldn't like to lose much on downhill performance compared to my Stumpjumper.. and I'm afraid those two bikes are not nearly as good downhillers as my bike.

Cheers!

Hi,

what you�re really searching for? Are you looking for a racer? Or would you like a touringbike? If you�re searching first kind, than you will have your little problem with the travel! Love it or hate it: but a racer is a sportmachine.

Greetings

Let's put it this way: I'm looking for the best climber, and the most agile ride from 110-130 mm range of bikes

have a look at cube stereo.

the spark 2009 has 120mm at the front and 115 at the rear not only 100mm as you said

Is your budget ready for custom-building? Then take a look at the Liteville 301 and the Nicolai Helius CC. Otherwise I'd think of the Trek Fuel EX, the Scott Genius MC or the Fusion Raid SL.

Thanks!

I think I don't have money for custom building...

But, Scott Spark and the new Cube Super Sting both look very interesting, but yet quite fragile.
Anybody tried them?
