I know there is a massive collective of Meta, Supreme, etc full sus owners but I was wondering what the ratio of hardtail owners is? So who is a Combi, Normal or Absolut owner then? Mine is a Combi Disc (I have aspirations of owning a Meta one day though)

I own a Normal.
The Normal was what I was originally considering but managed to sell my old Kona for a bit more than expected so managed to step up to the '08 Combi Disc. Searched for ages to find a dealer that still had it one in medium with the sand colour as I really disliked the silver colour scheme (even although my LBS was doing it for £30 cheaper). no regrets tho....

I wanted the combi disc but my budget wouldn't allow. I loved the colour scheme of the Normal too. Given my health issues, etc the v brake version is fine for me. Plsu 50% of my rides end up with me and the wife and kids. I have thrown on some Wellgo Mg1's in white though to add to the look. Hope you get to enjoy the bike mate.

Darts were poor in comparison to the Marzocchi's I used previously. Opted for a set of Recon 335s instead. Hone chainset, set of Smarty pedals and an Easton Monkeylite bar have been the rest of the upgrades (so far).
