Your opinion mate - I've had 2 and both didn't last.............so I speak from personal experience. Give me a full susser for £1k and in a week it'll be fucked mate.
BTW, your full susser looks like a bit more than a grands worth to me..........end of arguement !!!

I meant that the grand full susser would have been good for Timb based on what he said he'd be doing, not a grand full susser would be brilliant for everybody and everything! Horses for courses innit
Yeah mine was a 'bit' more..lol
But about 80 off road miles a week for the last 10 years or so means it's worth it. Tell me about breaking stuff! My last two bikes only the front half of the frame survived till the end, every other component got fucked one way or another. Scary when cranks snap and swingarms crack into pieces..lol
My Santa Cruz is holding up well tho ..............so far.....touch wood
