Where you riding that needs a dh bike? :)

Get a skills lesson and buy another wheelset (downhill wheels and proper tyres) for your current bike?

My mate's Scott is up for grabs if you wanna follow Festa's lead. Amazing condition and tons of upgrades. I posted it in the For Sale section a while ago :)
