Hi, im currently riding the '06 RM Fusion, and I was wondering if its a bike that can be upgraded so I can start riding some more serious trails. WIth some new components (from deore to maybe some LX, XT) and possibly a new fork, would this do the job?? And most importantly, is it a frame thats going to hold up??

Most deore gear works quite well.
The weakest link is probably the hubs which will require regular attention, and maybe the bottom bracket. This bike, with regular maintenance, should handle anything a cross country hardtail is designed for as is. I wouldn't replace things until needed as major upgrades such as forks can be more than the value of the bike. |
