One of the Fox 32's if you're looking for something on the XC/trail side...Rock Shox Lyric if you want more of a trail/AM fork...or a Fox 36 if you want an AM/FR fork.

i dont know yet but maybe a mountain cycle battery .
I probably will choose a FOX 32 FLOAT FIT RLC or a FOX 36 FLOAT FIT RLC.


Thanks in Advance

well if you want to do XC don't buy a battery....its heavy and requires MRP cromoly cranks with super wide axle to clear the swingarm - which makes the bike even heavier and gives a really wide Q factor for pedalling...

Battery is designed very specifically for slopestyle / dirt jump riding!


there are much better choices for all round bikes that will let you do XC and light freeride, look at the Specialized Pitch for example

Manitou sherman is a great choice also

Depends what frame you're gonna get. If it's more Trail/AM then a Fox 32 with 15mm axle, Pike or Sektor. If its more AM/EN/FR then a 36 or Lyrik.
