2008 Giant Glory DH 1 or Glory 8 Comp

[Gel]

I'm looking at a new bike that i will race occasionally, go jumping after a long day on the trails and only ride up hill if it is a must and even then i'll get off and push. my local trails are scattered with root gardens rock gardens that go for a good 200m-300m and also has lots of sharp and on some trails long roling berms.

i Brought it down to 2 bike the giant glory 8 comp and DH1 Both are worth 3400
