People on here will tell you what they think is good but you really have to get out on rides borrow peoples bikes and decide what you want to do. If your riding a 04 saracen at the moment maybe something like a Base would do you proud.... What ever frame you get i would really advise you dont go for a long bike coming from the short bike, you'll proably find it hard to control and not be able to control its length. If i was you i would look at the short Pure or Control just think there solid frame which ride really well, As for components on a Stock it should have all round ProII's, dengura (if your loaded) or a heatsink adapter and a good vee brake would be a mint set up (XTR brake) Probably Echo rims for sheer strength...Middleburns on Tensile UCI cranks..... front vee or BB7... (203mm of course)....Well thats my dreamish stock! hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
