 sweet bike man, Direct mount stem on those boxxers and a slimmer seat, then it'll be even sweeeeter.

 Thanks! I will probably run a direct mount next season. The seat is pretty slim already. Its a BMX racing seat so there isn't much to it other than some fake leather wrapped around a pc. of plastic. Not much to sit on but it is super light compared to some of the other DH seats I looked at.

 Mint bike, how does it ride?

 Thanks! It's super fast! I have had it through some pretty narly rocks as well as some buff trail with fast berms, jumps, and rythm sections. I tend to like riding the later of the two types of trail so to me it really stands out there. Jumps/ drops are effortless and you can pretty much go full boar through a berm and know the suspension will settle in nicely/ predictably. No suprises. At sub 38 lbs it's light so I am not exhausted at the end of the day and it makes it much faster through rythm sections. It also plows through rocks well. Only problem is (for me anyway) you have to have the balls to plow through rock gardens full boar. The bike will do no problem it it's just a bit scary. If you go to slow the rock ring on the MRP sometimes hits. Drawback of having a low BB but that is normal on just about all serious race bikes worth their weight in salt. The low BB makes it feel stable in all high speed conditions you just have to acknoweledge it.

Bottom line...If you can get your hands on one of these I HIGHLY recommend it. I've ridden a lot of other brands and I would say this bike is noticibly faster/ more predictable than most. It's definitely a bit more expensive than some other brands but it's worth it. Rider based company, Canadian made, and proven suspension design. Who could ask for more? You know exactly what you are getting for the price.
