The sweet spot

[smifffymoto2]

I’m after a new full suspension bike,2nd hand most likely.

I used to ride natural trails and only a few bike parks per year,so I would say it’s cross country.

My current bike is proper old school geometry,short and twitchy.

Is 120mm still the norm for natural terrain?

120mm is described as “down country” category - an xc bike that is designed to be more comfortable to ride and more capable with out the need to lug the extra weight of a trail bike. A lot of manufacturers will adopt a xc bike into a DC bike though some will build up there own 130mm travel version to be a light trail bike.

How much you looking to spend? Have a look at transition spur over a transition smuggler to see the difference options in travel. I have a transition sentinel which will be next step up again
