Here's my situation:

Currently, I have a DH 'Extreme Raceline Pro' (With Manitou Stance Kingpin 180mm forks)...and a 'Cube Acid 29er Hardtail'

I ride through an XC trail with hills and descends. However, there are a few jumps on the way which I would like to do. After the XC trail, I RIDE up a fairly Beginner DH trail, and back down.

For all this, I use my DH bike. My question: Should I sell my DH and Keep my 29er Hardtail? Or keep the DH.

Type of trail I ride: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKXEHu7POCI&sns=sms......except more downhilly

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Question #2:

When riding XC on a downhill, should the seat height be the same as on a Hardtail bike? Currently, it's lower than a Hardtail.

Thanks!!

Keep both, more bikes = good

*Also, seat height is more comfortable tall for uphill and low for downhill, its all personal preference
Your stem has lots of spacers on it wow
