buy a specialized bighit, a mongoose blackdiamond triple or a kona stab

your father is a sick fuck for taking pictures of his daughter in a bikini and your grandma is a slut for being so close to breast like that. i bet shes thinking ' mmmm my granddaugther sure does have nice breasts, so firm and perky but too bad they dont beat mine cuz mine hang down to my knees and when im standing naked it looks like i have 2 sets of arms' - Lateralis

One word, INTENSE. Best frame in the biz, can't break it, and holy S#$T they ride well. I love my M1.

get a used because you can most likely get something insane for the price of a crappy new bike.

You are going to spend at least 1500 on a nice used DH bike. If you really want to go all out I suggest getting an ASTRIX. These are the sweetest bikes around right now in my opinion. The HAVOC is the straight up DH bike, but it's not much good for much else. I really want a HUCKSTER, the DH/Freeride model that can climb fairly well too. Only thing is, these bikes are not cheap, but well worth the money.

dont get an oxyx spitfire. aweful bike. for the money I would say the aline but if you cant afford it then this years atomik is sick for the cash and definatly raceworthy. I picked up my m1 used for about $1200cdn though so if you look you can find a good deal used.

Brodie Diablo has a pretty good price, also the specialized big hit, or if your right into it, a banshee scream, or Elsworth would be suitable. There's so many to choose from.
