i have a chrage iron they are very good strong and nice bikes. i just dont think they would be good for downhill! the charge blender would be better.

the blender is a good price but the titanuim one is really expensive!

edit: and charge irons can have single speed Smile

I love my Giant STP for downhill.

Pretty sure they do a full bike for around £600 and it's got a good spec.

A banshee morphine or orange msisle are two great hardtails that will take anything you can throw at them.
