yep.

 thanks! id like to know what you thought of it? like stiffness, how it rode, weight, etc?

 well, mine had a bit of play in the pivot bearings, but not bad at all.. weight was okay, a bit on the heavy side, but the bike is a tank dude., you can send these off anything and stick it. rode great!! people say the seat-post weld can snap, but i certainly never had a problem. solid ride all around man, my only advice would be to kick the manitou susp. and ugrade to a fox coil, and a rockshox domain or totem or something. cheers

 thanks! yeah the manitou is kind of shitty, but should hold me until i have the $$ to upgrade.

 Thanks man! I'm really close, I just need a seatpost, 9spd cassette and chain, grips, and tires! It will be built in two weekends, I'm hoping. Too bad I have to sell it...

 why you have to sell it?

 I need money for racing this season, and I'm not too into downhill anymore. To be honest, it scares me, and I'm accident prone, so I'm better off riding XC so I don't break anything else.

 ya. that sucks man. you looking to upgrade your xc bike then? good luck in the race season.

 Yeah either that or get a 29 hardtail. Or an Am/Trail bike. Thanks man!

 No hahaha soon, though!

 Lol took you long enough to respond lol and well then... Wth else do you need for it hahahahaha

 Haha sorry, I was just going through my photos and saw this comment, idk why I never got a dash notification. I need a front derailleur, grips, chain, cassette, chainrings, tires, and seatpost.

 HAHAHAHAHHA!! An ikr it happens to me all the time i was just giving you a hard time mate hahaha, but for real thats like half the bike lol

 Nah it's almost done
