I decided to upgrade to a full suspension bike after weekly visits to Glentress or Innerleithen have shown me the limitations of a hard tail especially when the other two people I go with now have full suspension bikes aswell.
The weather has only just started to clear enough to get out and I manged a couple of circuits of a park near me (Beecraigs if anyone is in central Scotland) hopefully I will get down to Glentress next week to give the bike a better workout.
I have not got many plans for it but once I am use to it I will probably upgrade the rear shock and I don't find the gear shifters great so will change them at some point as I prefer the action of the Shimano ones on my hard tail.
I didn't want to go overboard on my first FS bike and tried a few and settled for a 2010 Pitch Pro but I couldn't get one in medium as it was discontinued so went for the 2011 model which took over 3 months to arrive.
