Found another one which I like the look of - Morewood Ndiza.

Warrentied for a 120mm fork if you feel so inclined. Also has ISCG mount. You may not be bothered about this but I'm certainly wanting one on my next bike.

It is socially unacceptable to give such good info and not post a pic




Good call, Ralph

I just found a bike I think I want to marry. It has everything I want. 130mm travel so you may not like it but I would rather have 5 inch than 4 inch. Has an ISCG mount, can adjust head angle from 68.5 to 66.5 degrees. And looks absolutely pimp in white. Only problem is I can't find much in the way of reviews, so it may turn out it's crp and then I'm back to looking at banshee wildcard of one of the transition bikes.

Oh, didn't realise that was how they changed tha angle.

Also I just thought, if you're looking at 4-5inch then what about the banshee wildcard?

You are so easily swayed by one comment

No, I still love the look of it. Tbh I wouldn't have really thought it would have much effect as long as you keep it tightened, I just cba with an argument with chel atm, he'll prob win in the end anyways.

I'm personally waiting for bikeradar to do a review on it, they've been mentioning it varios magazines quite a bit recently.

I know this thread died a while back, but I thought it was worth bringing back to life to mention the Tazer VP FRO



Shame it only comes in 1 size.
