Well it is come down to it, a new DH rig. I have researched and searched forum after forum and still undecided and it has come to asking for help.
I have had my eye on the Revolt for sometime now but with the release of the TR450 it has thrown a wrench in the gears. I have been riding DH for approximately 2 years and have come off of a Stinky and Five 0. I want a bike that will last me for some time and that will be reliable and take the nasty burly hits that I will be throwing at it.
Price wise the TR450 seems to be a better deal with the frame and offered build kit from the factory. However, I am skeptical with there first year of production. The Revolt would be a very similar build as I am trying to keep on budget.
I will never be a world cup racer but simply looking for the best options for future development. Both bikes will have RC4 rear shocks and Fox 40's up front.
Unfortunatelly I have not tested either. There are no Evil dealers in our province, which makes me a little nervous and the TR450 are still on the boat to North America!
Any help from riders with experience on these bikes would be great!
Thanks
