Is there a better bike for £1900??? Got £2k for a DH bike and can't seem to find anything anywhere near as nice for the money.

Propain and Canyon might go close, but YT gets all the review praise

ah good to hear! fiddly knobs are lost on me though so I'm gonna go for the cheap'n... My pal has the Raw from this year and he certainly isn't hanging about without the 2 compression settings.

do you find the compression damping really useful? I have fox 36 rc2fit that I've never quite got dialled.

I'm just about to sell my 12 month old Nukeproof Scalp, cane creek DB, Saint brakes, saint mech, shifter. 😀

Good as new with about a dozen downhill runs in its life due to injury for most of last year.

I kind of wish i had the 'vanilla' model like my two friends have, as there are way too many knobs for me to fiddle with.

I set everything to the manuals base settings and havent felt the need to deviate from there yet.

Just for info, I'm a shortarse (5'6") and the small is fine if you like small frames. I fit my friends large absolutely fine, so think whether you like a bit of room or not.

I bought my tr450 for about 5k at the same time as my mate paid 2.4k for her wc model. I feel a bit of a fool as its every bit as good as the 450.

Ah rad! Vanilla it is! Ideally I'd have the raw but green it is because if availability.

I very nearly put a drunken order in the other day. They are very nice looking bikes. The only thing that stopped me was that the large wasn't available in large until not long after my ankle op when I wouldn't be able to use it for another 4 months.
