Since I don’t imagine hitting the dh trails more than once or twice a year, I’m planning on getting an over mountain bike that gives me more flexibility!

Well, since you are saying you will be only flying down DH trails more than once or twice a year, why get another bike then, just rent a bigger travel bike when you go. Makes much more sense and cost effective as well… 😆

I shred on a DH bike because I ride DH and big FR, thus why I justify bigger bikes in my stall. However, I have other bikes for other discipline riding as well. You know, one for the DJ’s, flow tracks, and slalom course, and a slopestyle bike for the less intense DH/FR and lighter. I also have a HT for XC or AM riding. However, if you aren’t going to be riding DH but once or twice a year, then save the change and stick with what ya have man. Just saying! 😉
