so there reality check is bullshit and problibly just something they said to you just so you don't try. oh ya and there hasn't been a frame desighn out that has been needed in DH look at Andrew Shandrow in 1970's or all of the old bay riders in CA oh ya weight isn't the issue when your going down hill. its the rider if they are BITCH or NOT i train XC on my 53 pound 2012 specialized demo 8ll all day just so its not an issue at the races. MT. Diablo concord CA

ya too bad the swing arm would pull back away from the bb causing the chain to tension or jacking. though there is still a single compression system at least its he used leverage as a key for his frame unlike santacruz did on the vp free hey kid fuck what they said i know iron workers and metal shops that have made there own custome bikes and CNC billet parts using autodesk inventor pro as the CAD softwear. it was$ 3,000 and two mounths of work and one week of TechShop SF has classes for everything you need to learn welding, cnc, CAD imaging, forge iron, prototyping all classes are 50$ and up to 80$

the bb would sink on this causing pedles to scrape on rocks in garden

Nice video and great shots with the helmet cam. Oh ya wild Turky looks awesome
