need to decide
 
first off, i have a hard rock comp with disc brakes, and i really am hating hard tails, i want a full suspension, but the only thing in my price range is the kona kikapu, but i work at a bike shop and get everything 40 percent off, its not about the money really, i just dontknow if i should upgrade my hardtail, i love the bike, but i really like full suspension a lot more, is full suspension really worth the extra money to buy a whole new bike all together, or should i buy a full suspension frame alone and swap the components? need some suggestions

IMO I would buy a nice frame and have the hardrock's parts put on the new frame. What about the Trek Fuel 70 as a complete bike?

thats the thing, i can only get a bike from either kona or raliegh or cannondale, because thats all our bike shop carries, and thats all that i can get a 40 percent off deal with

Can you buy the Kona Howler frame for $700, but use the 40% to make it even less?

taylor p 07-26-06 09:40 PM

do you have to buy it from your lbs

errolprowse 07-26-06 09:42 PM

if i do, i get 40 percent off, i cant afford one thats not from my bike shop

errolprowse 07-26-06 09:46 PM

yes, i can get the howler for cheap, but i want an all mountain, and the howler i hear is pretty heavy, and not to good for xc at all, i kinda want a cross between all mountain and cross country, oh and we also have khs and surly bikes

40% off the King supreme frame??

EJ123 07-26-06 09:53 PM

thats 1069-427.6 so 636:D

Even though the bike barley has ne rear suspension.

ohh, i ordered the dawg supreme, but they were out, then i ordered a dawg, found out that i couldnt get the bro deal, because i dont have a credit card, kinda dumb i think, what do u guys think about weyless, i can get a good frame for cheap with fox shock float in the back
