techincally its freeride as it is only 7 inches of travel (ppl would argue that true DH bikes have 8+) and also the headtube angle is not as slack as some big bikes. however you can change the headset to a slacker one to make it more DH orientated!

 thanks dudes. havent ridden her yet due to cables, need new chain device and direct stem. however i rode just the frame in the alps with some 36's and it really is unbeliveable. its only 7 inches but feels absolutely bottomless. did the world cup DH run in morzine and only the forks let me down with sore writs the frame was lush beyond belief, now with the new puppies up front we will be sorted. oh yeah and those pedals are new as smashed 3 sets both on the left side out there lol aint nothing gonna fuck with those straightlines!

 yeah got on order new direct stem and handle bars, left over frm old frame! yeah ok maybe not world cup but the big ass knarly one that I was told/thought was world cup so whatever, am sure you are right! and why does everyone hate the red walls, LOVE THEM!

 Just a few things, lovely frame, the red wall tires and blue stem are dire though, also, there isnt a world cup run in morzine bro.

 you lucky fuck. that is one of the nicest DH rigs i've seen. i'm not exactly digging the redwall tires, but it's your bike not mine

 nice ride dude, that looks really sweet.. iv never seen one of these before, well atleast i dont think so...

what is it ?

 thanks man! its a corsair maelstrom. they are quite new!

 isnt that the corsair freeride frame, not the DH frame...

 nice
