Modern(/ish) full-sus frame

[Ziggy]

Apologies for the non-retroness, but my proflex isn't getting ridden in its current semi-retro, semi-modern guise, so I want it back in 1996 form. That means I 'need' something modern to abuse instead.

I'm not after a DH bike, but apart from that, the only real cert is that it'll need a rear disk mount. Oh, and it needs to be a medium / 17"ish size.

Something like a Hecker / Burner would be grand, but that's certainly not all I'd consider!

Anyone got anything? Feel free to PM if you don't want to admit to ownership of modern wrongness on here!

Thanks, but no thanks - sure it's a perfectly acceptable machine, but I guess I'm just too vain!

True

Think I'll keep looking for now though...

Some one's got an Orange Sub5 in the for sale section. Might be of interest.

Just got a 1997 giant atx 990 pro that I now won't be using due to the imminent arrival of a mountain goat

It is v-brake only though but has goldtec travel plates to up the travel to approx 5"

Just after the £60 I paid for it.

Just read your add properly and noticed the comment on rear disc mounts

Oh well never mind.

Have got a 98 sintesi bazooka project for the same money though

Damn it - I actually really like those old Giants, but I'm gonna have to hold out for something newer with a disc mount

The Bazooka's not quite what I'm after either, sorry...
