I am thinking to buy a Norco A-Line 2005 for about 1000$ and I would like to know if it worth it.... I want to start DH (Only did 1-2 times with my friend bike at Bromont and I liked it a lot.

Look to be a good deal. The A-Line is a great bike, I've been riding mine hard for 7 years now with no complaints other than that I would just like to get a new bike.
Hard to tell, it's a 2005 so it's kinda expensive for the year but at the same time, the bike looks really clean. Best is to try it before you buy it.
There's also these bike i found in your area wich might be a better choice. In the end, what ever bike you buy, be sure to buy the one you liked the most. I know the 2005 a-line looks good, but it's older.
