 Thx man, it's an awesome frame. The most versatile that i know. I tested a lot of bike this year (Intense Tracer VP, Tuner 5. Spot D-link, all MDE models) but my Heckler still the one that i love Smile Smile Smile Now with a DHX Coil it really transform the feeling of the rear. More stable, no more trouble while braking even if it's a single pivot. Easy maintenance (2 bearings) and very strong frame, it hit big drops without problems. The first impression overall, from all heckler owners, is the amazing feeling that they get from riding this frame : easy to handle it procure a lot of pleasure instantly !

 Damn lol now I'm definitely probably getting it. Ha yeah...the Turner 5 spot was actually one of the frames I was considering, along with a transition preston fr ... but with the heckler, I could build it sub 30 lbs...with the preston...it'd be more like 35-38 lbs. Nd the heckler frame isn't extremely expensive...unlike the Tracer VP or 5 spot...which you find for like a few hundred bucks more than the heckler. Thanks for your opinion!

 That's what i do. Two kind of wheelset, seatpost and shox :

- 30 Lbs with a DHX Air, XR4.2 and Hope PRO II hubs, and a Joplin R. I ride last week 45 km XC ride with 1300 m + with that setting

- 36 Lbs with a DHX Coil, Singletrack and hope pro II and a normal seatpost

Attention, i run a guide chain E-13 (that's also a little heavy)
