the bullit is an excellent bike, especially with the new 5th element shock. Pedals like a dream.

Don't even consider the patriot unless you live in the UK, cuz no one deals them here in n.america, so shipping and the such will make it wayyyyy too expensive for the bike you're getting.

Norco's VPS line is always a good bet, as well as the kona stinky line.

People on the shore have had some really good experience with the Rocky Mountain RM7 and RM9. Both are long travel downhill bikes, not the greatest for pedalling because of it's super high bb though.

msg me if you have any questions about specific bikes.

Can you get to Canada? It might be hard to find some Canadian bikes in the US. The guys at NSMB.com like the Rocky Mountain RM7. Norco's full squish bikes are also nice.
