Thanks.

It is the best bike i have owned, its so fast and with the spec i have, really light too.

If you ever see me down Chicksands, you're more than welcome to give it a try.

my sons

I recognise your sons one from bikeradar, I commented on it then.

That's nice. Blue?

Cheers. Yeah, 2008 blue comp frame with lyriks and a coil shock.

Pedals up most things and flies down the rest. Pretty much how specialized should have built the pitch.

Hay Travis I've got a pitch aswell and will be looking to put a coil on it eventually, but just wanted to ask u how it fits
Coz iv heard the piggyback can hit the down tube when fully compressed? also does the coil rub on seat tube at the bottom?

There is no problem with anything hitting as long as you get a correct sized shock. i think it's 200mm eye to eye

i have a van-r on mine and it doesn't come anywhere near the frame at all.

this shot may explain it better

Cool. cheers nwmlarge. That shows it perfect.

Ordering one now? lol

I wish I could but going on hols in a couple of months so I need to save for that.
But ill get one eventually

Maybe this when iv got moneys http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 4554252686

Looks like a good buy. make sure you match up the spring to your rider weight.

i weigh 85kg and would ideally need a 525lb spring
i had a 450lb one originally and it was way too soft for me
i have a 500lb one now and it is much better.
