Nice thread. Makes me feel like finally restoring the 550 I have in the attic.

But to what?
It has Suntour XCE fitted just now. It works well.
I'd like to stay with Suntour... Maybe Suntour X1?

I haven't ridden this for a few months now, a recent thread about converting old mtb frames into Gravel bikes has got me thinking... I reckon this would be ideal for the drop bar treatment, I even have some Suntour Command shifters somewhere...
