Iv'e always liked those older specialized and that ones pretty nice.

Get the longer travel first, the shock you have now is pretty bloody short, then it will be a beast!!!:cool:

for a start, mavic dont make 24 inch rims... and i wouldnt bother getting a longer shock, as it wil change the geo and the for the same kinda price you could sell your current frame and pick up something better.

other then that nice bike!
