just generally feels better.

They are both single pivots... hahahaha

The Bullit is more FR/DH oriented

Ever ridden one? It leans more towards the FR side obviously, but it's an amazingly plush, responsive bike. Toss a floating brake on there, and it would definitely be a good time on the dh course. Not a racer obviously, but you need more than 7" for that...

Are you asking me if I've ever ridden one?

The bullit has a higher pivot, mine DHs better than my old demo did.
