Trek 2011 Remedy 8
The best suspension All-Mountain bike I've ridden so far compared to Specialized Stumpjumers etc It feels really compact yet comfortable and corners great, the suspension setup is brilliant and it climbs like a mountain goat if you want it to.

Its stiff, loves technical climbing and going back down as fast as your nerve lets you.
The best thing is the way the bike acts under braking, the rear stays so active and supple giving you so much control and confidence.
Also I got mine with Elixir R brakes stock instead of Elixir 5.
