naw man the owner babied it, it was his first DH rig and he has toothbrushed it after every ride and had the suspension maintained the whole time, i just got a mad deal, i traded for for my custom giant STP because the guy just got an 06 shore and decided to let the 02 go, it was hard for him to let it go, i could tell it really meant alot to him. but i think we both ended up with a good deal in the end.
