 Was asking because I can buy an 18.5 inch norco frame like yours for £65 which is roughly $90 along with 150mm travel marzocchi drop off forks, about the same price and I have just enough cash for them, I am 6ft 1 inch and not sure if the frame will be too big for me

 Also im used to running small hardtail frames, never had anything over 16 inches, im using a mk1 dmr sidekick with 100mm travel rockshox recon and do trails/singletrack riding

 Keep in mind the frame is big/heavy/strong. I would not expect it (the norco frame in the picture) to perform well in nimble trials-like riding.

 Your fine Stu... I'd rock the ish outta that. Just pay attention to the headtube area when cleaning..

 How much travel do the forks have, what size is the frame and how tall are u?

 So first put yourself in the years between 2005 and 2006. The frame (19.5" Norco Torrent 2005, Google it for geo info etc) was the perfect dh hard tail frame, but is no longer being made with those specs.

The fork is a 888 VF 170mm with flat crowns, 2006.

I am 6'3", but like to pedal out of the saddle, a more free ride personality.

This has been my favorite build by far. Look in my videos to see it in action (self filmed dh hard tail edit)
