ive owned min for a lil while now, and ridden it at mammoth, santacruz, monterey, and oregon. the bike will rail corners, the bump absorbing is somewhat firm in the rock gardens, but what can you expect on 5.5"? jumping this bike excells at very balenced and the suspension doesnt rob you of speed. On all the Dh's at mammoth it performed just fine, you just get used to the firmer ride, you are still able to hold your line if your a confident driver. I love this bike over my demo in every respect.
