Carbon vs Aluminum: Separating Environmental Fact From Fiction in the Frame Materials Debate
@snowwcold55: Pole is not an american company. European company policies have changed quite a bit away from american model of consumer finding out what he actually is buying. It is quite bothersome.

Video: On the Cutting Edge
Somebody with lot of extra could sponsor this kid a full suspension. I used to do the same thing but had an aluminium frame (UuuUuuu). I even remeber sandpapering the rims to get more braking power :DD Many years later in somewhere in my twenties i rode a used fullsuspension that was on sale on a bike store... It blew my mind what you could do with it and that sparked the hobby again even if i didn't have money to buy that at the time but a year later i had my first fullsuspension which saw intensive use even thou it was winter in Finland allready at that time.

Banshee Rune 650B Review
I dare say that in Finland a 29er would make a lot more sense then 26er and this is from a noob point of view as i have ridden a proper full suspension 26" for about a year. I tried 29" and on that testrun i saw the help that it would make in technical squirmy single trails.. we have parks and stuff but from a freeriding angle it would be more suitable in most Finnish conditions and trails :)
Happy trail as i have 2-3months before i can find some under the snow :D
