whatever you do, do not buy a kona hardtail. My roast sucks. Buy a transition Trail-or-park or an azonic steelhead.


frozen spermy pops isnt really food. more like an appetizer before atlantaski's mom takes a huge dump on his dads face then he comes in and sticks in the dick in the shit while his mom sucks him off. now that would be the most hardcore incested sex scene of all time. it would be the dirtiest ass to mouth scene but without the anal penetration - Laterials

I've heard that the tankass breaks easily.
But the bike is PIMP

I didn't know it did. There was just some hype about it literally being a tank.

personally, if you want to freeride and DH, you are gonna need two bikes. thats like asking for a ski that you can race with and jump with. If you are looking for a HD, i say look into a specialized. They have some of the nicest hard tails aviable. If money doesnt matter why not get a Full suspension. To the kid who said his friend had 10 inches of travel on his front fork, why do you need that on a HT?

wolfmansbro, I'm not a kid- but anyway, as for the amount of travel on his hardtail, the guy is psycho, like... nuts. you should see the shit he drops- he needs the travel.

wolfmansbro, ''personally, if you want to freeride and DH, you are gonna need two bikes...' You probobly haven't been to a downhill race have ya? There are people who race on hardtails, and one I talked to he was riding on his freeride hardtail because his full suspension broke. Oh he made podium by the way.

Evil imperial and the like is pretty prime if you're thinking downhill. One of those with dorados or 888's would be pretty cool.

I personally would go for something more street/freeride. I can't stand DH on a hardtail.. An aaron chase, '05 p3, or something similar would be awesome. GL.

^its not impossible to ride a hardtail for DH, but its obviously a big disadvantage schockwise and for your balls, thats the only reason why its better to have 2 bikes...

I cracked my roast frame, my friend broke his stinky nine in three places, doing a SMALL stair gap.

Look at the new norco hardtails, the 4hun is sweet.

oh shit, you can never argue with a banshee morphine. It's an amazing bike, the frame has to be one of the toughest frames out there. But you can never go wrong with a Pornking frame. and the new Jamis Kamodo is pretty sweet, plus its not too expensive like 1600$ Canadian.

as an owner of a cannondale chase II, I'd say DON'T get the chase unless you plan to spend most of your time street riding and dirt jumping. I use mine for that AND xc riding, but the way the frame is built, it creates a fulcrum effect when your seat is higher up that causes your front wheel to lift whenever you try to hammer up steeper hills, making it difficult. This is a problem with a lot of DJ and street compatible mtn bikes... so you might want a more freeride oriented frame. my 2 cents.
