Full suspension just gets better and better! Pivot bearings are improving across the board (sealed cartridge bearings) giving greater smoothness and durability. Different styles of bikes from light weight XC (cross country) to long travel Downhill and beefy Big Hit or Jump bikes abound. There is a great choice of off-road riding styles and bikes to match out there. Want to know more? We have test ride bikes available and know the best places to ride them - contact us for details!

Marin offer 3 superb full sus formats.

• The Quad XC-120 bikes are super efficient, lightweight 5 inch travel cross-country bikes. The quad-link rear suspension system has been moved to in front of the seat tube for extra smooth action, lighter weight, and less muck all over the moving parts. Put together with a newly hydroformed main frame that increases strength, stiffness and standover while reducing weight, this all adds up to a truly amazing off road experience.
• The Quad Trail-140 bikes now have travel fixed at 6 inches and variable geometry, so that the bike can be adapted to different levels of terrain. They look the same but they work even better.
• The Quad XLT is Marin’s big and bouncy beast. With 7 inches of travel and a frame that is still light enough to pedal back up the hill again, this is the bike for ripping down the wackiest trails.

Trek offer 2 excellent groups of full suspension bikes

• Top Fuel:-100 mm or 4" of travel and the lightest carbon fibre frames make for speed, speed, speed. Full on race bikes.
• Fuel EX comes with 120mm or 5” of travel to takes the bumps and roughness of British off roading. Now they are using Fox Shocks and an improved geometry at the rear, with a stiffer, lighter back end. These bikes have been getting rave reviews from "those who know"
  
  
• Session, Well, if you want to push it up the hills and then jump off cliffs, this is the bike for you.
