Full Sus Frames

[robcorney]

Lately i've been feeling that i need (or really want) a full suspension frame to replace my rockhopper frame. Obviously being at uni i've got no money for one, but apparently in Feb we might get a £1000 bursary. If this happens ill have some cash to spend.

Obviously i don't want to blow it all, 500-600 is probably my top price. Can anyone help me out with ideas of what to get, there's so many out there that i'm at a loss. Any suggestions or advice will be greatly appreciated!

Have a look on ebay rob. Loads of decent 2nd hand frames going cheaply. I sold my marin full suss in good condition just a few marks here and there for 220!
I was lucky enough 2 get a brand new spesh enduro frame for less than 600. The guy bought the full bike, then decided it was to small and bought a large frame and swaped all the bits. There are loads of frames there. Have a look, see what takes your fancy and suit your style of riding.

Should be able to pick up a good one off fleabay for that much rob.

I'd be tempted by a Marin or Orange.
