Thinking of getting one, considering the gran mal but its 400 more. I ride more freeride, but some dh tech stuff as well. Also need to figure out size, small or medium. I am about 5'9 140#. I wonder if they will have a small and medium frame to demo at P.A. next week...

My GOOD friend is there shipping guy. Just go to the website and talk to them. There GREAT guys and would be more then happy to help you pick out a bike. Maybe if you can get up to BellingSlam they might let you demo them. I know they ride about EVERYday.

We're about the same height and I ride a small frame. Much easier to throw around. Might hold you up a touch on DH'ish stuff, but you'll appreciate it when you go big...which I've seen you do before.

If you are going to pedal it up hill get a med, I am 6ft, ride a med and it is too small for up hill pedaling. my little bother is 5'10 and thinks the med is great.

I am thinking about selling my frame if you want an 06 med green, I would get a large dirtbag or a bottlerocket to replace it.
