Thanks for that Tim, as for my riding, it's hard to say I do more of one
type than another, I do some singletack, moorland, trail riding, everything
really, except I do try and avoid the big rocks and drops, and yes I do
know I'm a big girls blouse. I was thinking the same thing about the
linkage on the Niota, but I couldn't find anything on the net last night
about it failing or only being used for "light" duties. I am kind of
limited to £1100 by she who holds the purse strings and I'd ideally like to
upgrade to Hope disc's at the same time. I know this is a bit of a tall
order but I'm still hopeful I can accommodate both.
Thanks
Gary

Please respond
to Mountain
Biking in the
North East of
the UK
Can I be the first to ask the question: what sort of riding are you going
to
do on it?
The linkage on the Niota is quite fragile looking and has more pivots than
a
swiss watch so wouldn't be my first choice for the big muddy, rocky, rooty
hills around here.
What about ProphetSL, Orange5, Kona Dawg, Spes FSR, 5spot, RM element,
Blur.
Seconded look at Dirt review.
Cheers Tim
