Trying to decide what to get. All models are 2004. I was originally looking at the Fisher Ziggurat until I read so many bad comments about the reverse arc Manitou forks. So then I looked into the BugSur and upgrading some of its componets. After that I was riding a FS and kinda like the way it feels, but haven't had it on a trail. My riding habbits are XC race with the occasional technical rides. So here are the choices (All '04 Fishers):
Ziggurat: top-of-the-line hardtail, would probably need different fork.
BigSur: highend hardtail, would need to upgrade some components.
Cake2: middle of the line FS w/ genisis geom., would need new fork.
Suger4+: middle of the line FS, would need to upgrade components and fork.
I prefer Fisher b/c the Genisis Geometry fits my body(tall, long torso). I also intend on upgrading to ChrisKing hubs w/ Avid mechanical disks. I appreciate all the advice and comments.
Thanks,
Brandon.
