Building a XC racer
I'd like to build a XC racer as winter project bike, something to use up some of my sale parts I have accumulated. I do want a full suspension frame but something that is lighter and more flickable than an Isis. Something more like sportbike than a SUV. There are a few framesets that might fit the bill. The Titus RacerX, Ellsworth Truth, Jamis Dakar,Giant NRS, PsycleWerks Wildhare,Specialized FSR XC,Ventana El Fuego,Yeti AS 3. How to decide?
