hey,

Thought id post up my new/first DH bike. previosly ive been riding a Small sasquatch and then to go to this 7" medium DH bike its just awesome...

Fits me nice and rides really well on the ground but havent had the chance to take it for a test flight yet. Its got a really good spec, and if you dont think so then wait for the price... $2000 BRAND NEW. i thought it was a mega bargain and an excelent way to go dually... any comments on it will be very welcome as i dont know much about some of the parts as im an XC rider :p .

So, here it is:

I love both heaps, xc bike is really fast and fun to ride and got me a podium this year, But i have only just got the dabomb so im yet to take it Downhilling, i will most probably be at the toowoomba race in u 17's. I cant wait becuase it will be my first DH race on a DH bike and all my freinds are goin to so i have to beat them lol:p

Seeya round... oh and the new bike means the old one must go so check out the pimped sasquatch in the for sale section!:D

I had a moab bomb. Strong, reliable, look sweet, eat bumps, boost nicely. Shit yeah. Mine had pretty much your spec too!

Enjoi it.

That da bomb is da bomb. Seriously though it looks awesome, also looks similar to a Kona Stab.

hey,nice ride
i rode the same frame for a while and loved it.
just beware that you may encounter supply issues if you need to replace the rear der hanger.
so order spares before you need them.
i snapped mine and the wholesaler was waiting for stock and was told 7 weeks!!
i sent my existing parts to grip and made me a custom one.
i payed the price for it but had it back in less than 4 days interstate!!!!

heres a pic of mine!
