I've just taken a bit of a flyer and bought a 05 Epic S-Works. It's a little bit scruffy around the edges but the frame is clean and it has plenty of XTR bits - wheels, brakes + gear shifters and the price was right!
It has Marzocchi Marathon SL forks which I would like to replace (no lock-out!) - what would people suggest as the best replacement?
Should I just send the rear "brain" away to be serviced and get it over with?
The previous owner has replaced the rear cassette etc with XT bits - should I go back to XTR?
I have another bike so I'm not in a mad rush but I would like to end up with a light reliable bike to keep for a couple of years!
