Well, it is really saddening but I am going to sell the Stinky. I need the money to get me through the winter (work slows down alot this time of year) and my own car would be awesome  . Anyway, I will be racing next year (if i can find a bike for cheapish) but I want some ideas for good downhill specific bikes. I am not much of a freerider which is another reason why I am selling this hucking giant. So, any suggestions?

are you guys going to buy three cars a year like bikes? i think you should find your passion bike, save the money and buy it, then don't sell it for three years, so year two you work on buying the car and year three you can start saving for your next dream bike, and the circle keeps going, until you get your girlfriend pregnant and then you are screwed

Freeridermatt I was some where with my buddy and some guy had a 303 and my buddie said to him thats it was his dream bike. The guy with the 303 said no its not it rides like crap so if your looking that way you might want to test one first

Commencal Supreme DH or whatever they are calling it these days. Light and I bet you could even build one for pretty cheap.

No where near there. Price range is around 1000 to 2000, same as my previous budget...it's low I know, but we will see.

demo? He said race specific Personally i don'y know where i stand with my DH baby. I love it but its had about 3 years on it with about 3 or 4 owners  The rear shock is a little iffy as well, but i don't have any money for a new one. So the turner is my baby for next year unless santa can fit a new one down my chiminy(sp?). My favorites are: TOMAC DH Giant Glory Devinci Wilson 4 Commencal DH
