Yeah looks good, if you don't like the frame or the way it rides you've got a great set of parts to transfer over onto a new frame.

Hello All,
Job done-bike ordered,although when I'll get it may be at Royal Mail's discretion,hah-hah!
I'm a MTB beginner (roadie until now) so this'll be for XC malarkey,nothing more.
Cheers,
Simon.
